This is a small piece of Mesquite sitting on a rosewood stem. It reminds me of a bird bath. Little bit of dye, oil and buffed wax finish.

C&C always welcomed.

That's a cool shape. It would be great as a candle holder. I'm not sure what's happening at the junction point of the two woods... Is that a burn line? Great job.

That's a very classy looking "birdbath". I love the form and contrast of the woods. Nice job!

Sweet. I love the combination of the mesquite with the rosewood. Now all you need is to find a mesquite bird... ;)

Pretty shape out of pretty wood. Neat idea. Will have to remember that possibility!:)

William, really a neat idea! Never really thought of mesquite and rosewood, but the little bit of dye kind of pulled them together quite well.
