This work was made specifically for the consignor by E. B. Cox, on one of her weekend visits to his property outside Toronto. The consignor, a new gemologist at the time, worked as an assistant teacher at Central Technical School, Toronto, where Cox was taking an evening gemology course. Working with a chainsaw at first, and refining the piece afterward, she watched him create the work, and it has been in her collection since.
