This vase is turned from ash wood. The surface is burned, which gives a deep black tone and highlights the wood's growth rings.
The vase is turned from wet wood. During drying, the wood has moved and taken on a more organic shape. Some cracks are stabilized with butterfly inlays. They stand as a visible reminder of both fragility and strength.
The vase is turned with respect for the wood's structure and movement, and stands as a sculptural object in itself.
