A hollow form I made a few weeks ago from a piece of old-growth California Redwood. The Redwood tree was sustainably harvested. It fell across a California highway in 2025.

Currently finished with pure walnut oil. I may lacquer the exterior to keep the shiny look. This piece is still in the process of drying and it’s looking better and better every day.
