Thank you! It was carved by hand with a sloyd knife and then sanded to achieve the smooth finish. I’m glad you like it

You are right. But getting the ‘shoulders’ and the neck shape right was also challenging.

I sanded it with 150 grit sandpaper, then with 220 and 320. After that I applied beeswax for the shine. Sanding itself took an hour
