Cabbage Burl #1

This 8-inch diameter bowl/vase was turned from a block of Poplar Burl. The overall shape reminds me of a head of cabbage, hence the name. I was inspired by a recent demo by Cindy Drozda at the AAW conference on how to plan and cut a burl along with an image I saw of a similar 'ball in bowl' turning. Poplar is usually a very plain wood, but this burl has provided plenty of excitement. Finish is Watco oil buffed on the Beall system.
