Fruit Cherry HF

This is from a piece of fruit cherry, Lambert I think, that had a punky dead branch imbedded in the wood. I tried all kinds of things to stabilize the punky wood but it still just crumbled out. So I decided to use the rough crumbled area as an "enhancement" and just left it rough. The punky area is soaked with CA and then it was finished with Danish Oil. 6" x 6"

I think its cool, would like to see a photo of the left side with the ruff texture, the grain is what caught my eye... Like the form too, nicely done, I like it.

Curt, that is wood with character and you have displayed it very nicely. Good work!

I see nothing wrong w/the piece, Curt; it's actually quite pretty.

Nicely done, I personally like seeing the imprefections in wood.
