Juniper vase

[Curt Fuller]

This wood came from a tree I had to take out of my mom's yard. It's some kind of ornamental juniper, not red cedar but similar. It's about 8" x 5.5" I'm guessing, didn't really measure it, and just has a first coat of oil on it so far, still wet.

Curt, that looks really nice...and it looks really close to red cedar

[alex carey]

beautiful, i dont think its cedar either, some other juniper.

[Baxter Smith]

Great colors! Striking! Hope you can get it to eventually be like that when dry.

[charlie knighton]

very nice...

[David E Keller]

That's really pretty... such an unusual pink color. I love the heart/sap contrast, and the overal shape is pleasing.

Beautiful vase Curt! Really like the form! Pretty wood - colors and grain pattern! Cool that you were able to include a few knots for contrast!

Very nice work - as always! Thanks for sharing!

[Tony De Masi]

Beautiful work Curt. Love the form of it. Do you turn it wet an just leave it be?

Nice work! Turning knots doesn't sound like fun!:eek: I am hoping that my flatwork encounters with them are worse than on the lathe.

[Ken Hensley]

Curt, really nice looking piece. I have been turning a little bit of cedar lately and I can see the resemblance but not as dark I like it.

Beautiful Curt. I really like that piece.

A good many of the upright junipers are some type of cultivar of the Rocky Mtn. juniper which most folks call red cedar.
