This vase was hand-turned from a single piece of Cedar, carefully shaped on the lathe to bring out the grain’s natural flow. I don’t use templates or mass production—each form develops slowly, guided by the wood itself.
It’s been finished with mineral oil and beeswax, which gives it a soft sheen and highlights the subtle details in the grain. The inside is not sealed and is best to use it with dried arrangements or a glass insert for fresh flowers.
This is the kind of piece that doesn’t shout for attention—but it draws your eye anyway. It’s meant to be a quiet showstopper on a shelf, table, or mantle.
Height: 8 in.
Opening Diameter: 4.875 in.
Base Width: 4.25 in.
- Weight: 1.17 lbs.
Finish: Mineral oil and beeswax
Water-Safe: Yes or use with insert
Care: Dust it gently or wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Use any oil to sharpen color now and then.
Each vase I make is one-of-a-kind. No two are alike. That’s what makes it special.
