8" x 7" side grain hollow form, finished in BLO. This wood was from a young tree that was killed by a beetle infestation. The base was only 10" in diameter and the heart wood was just starting to form. To take advantage of the little heartwood available I turned this side grain. I would love to find more of this wood from a mature tree as the heartwood polishes to a shine without any finish.
