Mesquite Bejeweled

A vase turned from Mesquite and inspired by Native American basketry that incorporated jewelry pendants. The six pendants are turquoise, coral and silver beads. 6.5" tall, 6.5" wide.
Additional view.

Nice form and I love the dangles David! I do wonder what this would look like with less burning at the base….you know, your perfected “less is more” technique!!

Thanks Russ. I think the wood is attractive enough to do without the base work but it is an addition I seem to use on vases more often than not lately. The black accents on Mesquite please my eye. I appreciate your comment.
