Black Birch Urn #21019

This urn was made from a small black birch tree that grew just outside the shop. I love this wood. The sapwood has a special glow, it is very light in color with a subtle grain pattern, There’s just a touch of deep reddish brown heartwood. The Black walnut lid was turned on the lathe and then hand carved, it is threaded into the urn with a finely machined threaded brass insert. The urn and lid have a hand rubbed lacquer finish.
