This is the bottom half of what was to be a 30" black willow vase. During drying the top of it warped and cracked too much for a second turn to work out. I tossed it into the scrap bin and a few days later decided to at least try to make something out of it. I cut it in half and shaped this out of the bottom. 13 1/2" tall and thin from top to bottom. During the process a big knot near the bottom came out and I lost it somewhere in the shop so cut off a sliver of a dead limb from the yard and trimmed it to fit the big hole. Shellac finish.
