And another... this is the lovely Karen's favorite piece. Spalted Silver Maple. 13x6". DNA, a few coats of Poly and buffed.
I have a stump in my backyard, about 4 feet in diameter by 5 feet tall. Its nasty stuff to work with...

I understand why it's Karen's favorite piece - it's just beautiful. Love that wild grain pattern!

The spalting is so nicely distributed it really gives a nice symetry to the piece.
