This old Flame She Oak Stump has been salvaged and brought back to life.  A few unnecessary roots have been removed with a chain saw before carving commenced.

The natural contours and grain of the Flame She Oak stump dictate the general shape and design of the finished piece.

The artistic concept of a  floral arrangemnt to hold a Bonsai plant or Candle has emerged. Very time consuming sanding to 600 gritt sandpaper enables the piece to have a natural high degree of polish and lustre which has been enhanced by one coat of Tung oil to seal and preserve the finished work of art.
