Queen Ebony

  • Media owner hughie
  • Date added
A small vessel out of Queen Ebony from the Solomon Islands, not really a common species here in Australia.
Stands around 4" tall with a girth of 3.5" at present its just been buffed no oil or any finish applied. This a good example what sort of finish it will take. The downside is it needs a slow drying process as its fond of cracking. But turns and carves well although sanding is slow.
