Burl Wood Vessel or Vase in Chinese Fir

About the Item

Estate find- vintage burlwood vessel in Chinese fir. Beautiful organic form. Base retains a label- 'Nimble Creation- Hand carved from the roots of Chinese fir. through the initiative of local farmers and artisans, the roots of the Chinese fir tree have found new life. Previously left in the ground and ignored, the roots prevented new trees from sprouting up. Now, carefully removed from the ground, artisans takes these tree trunks and hand carve them into unique pieces like the one you are holding, allowing new trees to grow in their place, bringing new life to the vast forests, Like fingerprints, there are no two identical in shape, texture, or grain. Note: I am not sure this can be used as a vase, though it has the form of a vessel or vase. Maybe dried / no water arrangements. DIMENSIONS: 8" x 8" x 11" H

  • Clyde Burt Ceramic Vessel or Vase
    By Clyde Burt
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Born in Melrose, Ohio in 1922, Clyde Burt would go on to become a major voice in American studio ceramics.
