Scarred Oak Bottle Vase

Scarred Oak Bottle Vase

Sometimes you get very lucky with a piece of wood and as a sculptor, it's about trying to emphasise the main feature of the piece. Clearly, this vase has a striking scar running across and down the face and surrounding it is a pattern of grain with loops, waves and swirls that look a lot like walnut.
