This is a Box Elder hollow vase with a carved apple wood collar. The BoxElder that grows here in my neck of the woods is almost white with very little grain character. Most of the color is from the tung oil finish. 7" tall.

Very nice piece. Great form and the carved coller is perfect. I see you only have two posts, so if I missed the first one, welcome to the Creek:)
