This English Walnut Burl Vase is a piece that celebrates scarcity and figure. I chose this wood for its incredibly dense, swirling grain and rich color variations that are unique to burl.
The vase was turned using the crossgrain technique, allowing the beautiful end-grain patterns to be prominently displayed around the piece. I preserved a natural edge along the rim, giving the final form an organic texture that contrasts with the smooth, polished body.
Standing at 6.1 inches tall with a 6.5-inch diameter, it has a pleasing, substantial presence, ideal for display on a mantel or a small table.
I finished the wood with a protective Tung Oil and Orange Oil mix to deepen the complex colors and ensure the figure is preserved.
