Lucky vessel

[Montgomery Scott]

I built this from the SIL's wedding tomorrow. I decided to try something different from the designs I normally do. I included hexagrams from the I-Ching. The primary wood is plum from a 3' diameter tree that a buddy cut in his yard. The secondary woods are gabon ebony, Eastern maple, African padauk and bloodwood.

Since eight is the luckiest number to the Chinese, I included eight hexagrams and each half ring is made of eight pieces. It's 13.75" in diameter and 14.25" tall. Finished with lacquer.
