"Whittled Wood Saturn" Heavy Blend Unisex Crewneck Sweatshirt

Open space is left above and below the planet, and that room is what lets the ring swing as wide as it does. On this crewneck sweatshirt the artwork is a single Saturn drawn as though it had been whittled from one block: a sphere tilted so its ring runs from upper left down to lower right, coloured in honey tan, amber and burnt orange. A curved seam divides the globe into a paler upper cap and a darker lower half. Grain covers all of it. Concentric ovals tighten into a knot near the top of the cap, and a second, tighter swirl turns low on the right side, the way a branch scar shows up in a turned bowl.

The ring is the part that gives the idea away. It is drawn as a flat ribbon, a shaving a blade has lifted off the wood, looping broad on the left and thinning to a small hooked curl at the lower right. Where it meets the seam there is a little notch, as if the strip were still attached to the globe at that point. Shadow is a deep teal-navy, laid in fine engraved hatching and stipple under the sphere and inside the loop of the ring. It suits anyone who likes woodworking or astronomy, and it makes an easy gift for someone who keeps a workbench.
