English Walnut Vessel

This is my first post on the AAW website. I post regularly on WOW and I thought I would share my work here too.

This wood came from a tree that was cut down in a friends yard and saved for me. At first, I thought it might have been a Butternut tree due to the large amount of sapwood in the base.

I found one remaining set of leaves with smooth margins that proved it is indeed English walnut.
I plan to turn a smaller version of this piece as a thank you gift for my friends.

All comments are welcome.

Dimensions: 16H x 9 Dia., Oil finished and buffed
That's a really neat piece. I really like the eye peeking out toward the bottom, and it looks like there's a face just underneath it, looking to the left. Really cool.
