Deep inside a fallen log microorganisms compete for moisture and a place to eat. Dry that piece of wood and the microorganisms are gone but what’s left behind is a rainbow of colors ranging from golden yellows to browns of every shade and black. The curves and proportions of this spalted sugar maple vase are the perfect canvas for a study in spalting as the tree’s layers are peeled away. Measuring approximately 9” tall and 5.5” at its waist, this vase will complement an arrangement of dried flowers or stand on its own. But don’t fill it with water, it’s wood after all. Finished with tung oil and lacquer.
