Laburnum Pendant

This gorgeous pendant is made from laburnum with maple finials. The laburnu is exhibiting the strong contrast between the heart wood, dark and the sap wood light that is so characteristic of this wood. It has a brownish green tinge which mellows with age and exposypure. It also, typically for this wood, has several natural inclusions which have been filled with brass. Though it has been hollowe out this is a large pendant at 300mm and with a wide (80mm) body and so is more suitable for a larger tree or as a centre piecde fpor a display. It has been finsihed woith a hard wax polish giving it a lovely natural gloss as well as making it easy to maintain. A one of a kind collectors piece.
