Woodturning - Spalted Myrtlewood Sphere Stem Vase

I found these pieces of spalted Myrtlewood in Oregon late last year. They were very spalted and required soaking in Cactus Juice Stabilizing Resin. Even so, they were pretty punky!
I used basic woodturning techniques to get the pieces round, then hollowed out an inner sphere. A bit of Pewter made for a nice band at the seam.
The final piece is a little funky, but I like it!

If I could hit LIKE a million times I would, cause that’s how much I love this vase. ❤

The grain of the wood really pops at the end! Well done!

Прошу прощения, а что это?

Это называется ваза для стеблей... внутрь поместится только один или два стебля растения.
