TURNED VASES

[morsa]

Here, I show three vases turned out of logs pruned in a public park in october 2014, so the wood is completely dry now. They are finished with boiled linseed oil, sealer and beeswax.

By the way, I don't know what kind of wood it is. Anybody has an idea?

First:




Second:




And third:

Don't know what wood those are. But those look beautifull! What ever that wood is, it was a great choose.

[morsa]

Thanks, Tuomas. I agree that the combination of colors of this wood is just spectacular.
With remaining wood, I made a small bowl






and jewel box.





Regards, morsa.

Hi !
Very nice work, and very nice wood indeed, well finished.
It could be yew, but looking closely, I don't think so.
Maybe sumac ?
Cheers,
Christophe

Thanks, Christophe.
I'm not sure if in the central area of Mexico there is sumac or yew, and none of these names are familiar to me. I'll keep investigating.
Cheers!

Sin palabras, ya sabes lo que diré, maestro, exquisito trabajo y que madera....:aplausos:

Gracias, amigo jotasierra. La realidad es que con sólo darle un poco de forma, el esplendor de la madera se encarga de hacer lucir las piezas. Un abrazo.

From the same pruning, but in other wood, here I show two vases:







And a third vase, in another kind of wood.



By the way, I did some research about the trees present in this park, and they are:

Bugambilia (Bougainvillea)
Camelina (Camelina sativa)
Croto (Codiaeum variegatum)
Eucalipto (Eucalyptus)
Grevilia (Grevillea robusta)
Jacaranda (Jacaranda)
Pirul (Schinus molle)
Trueno (Ligustrum vulgare)
