This vase measures approximately 11" H x 6.25" D (across its widest point) and it is hollowed to about 1/4" wall thickness. I used Parfix 3408 C/A for the finish, for the last step of the finishing process, I buffed with a very light coat of Renaissance Wax. The ""wavy" alligator juniper is harder to find than the regular alligator juniper trees, it produces spectacular grain patterns that are a bit fancier than the regular alligator juniper variety but not as rare as alligator juniper burl.
