This is the first of 2 identical urns. I was commissioned to make them by a friend for his dogs. They are his kids in every sense of the word. The are segmented nothing is painted on. Everything you see is 100% wood. The finial is ebony, the cap rim and base plug are curly mango wood, the body is wenge and sapele, the white lines are maple. Yes the pattern gos all the way through.
