LV-375 Pink Flame & Ebony Hand Turned Wooden Bowl, Hollow Form, Pedestal Vase, Weed Pot-RARE

LV-375 Pink Flame & Ebony Hand Turned Wooden Bowl, Hollow Form, Pedestal Vase, Weed Pot-RARE

$ 165.00


This is a beautiful vase made out of Pink Flame (Rinorea racemosa) and Indian Ebony (Diospyros ebernum) base. Pink Flame is a new and very rare timber from Peru. The species was just recently been identified. The heartwood of the female tree is capable of turning brilliant pink to dark red by some natural chemical processes. Although looks similar to box elder, this wood is much heavier, a lot harder, and more colorful. It is hard to believe that this rock-hard wood came from a tree in the same family as the dainty Violet flower. This hollow form was turned cross grained (a tough job!) to show all the possibilities of the color play. Rare and beautiful!

Dimension (largest diameter x height): 3-1/4" x 3"
