Mesquite

A neighbor came back from Arizona with a chunk of mesquite.  Once I cut it open on the bandsaw I saw It had a lot of voids and cracks. 

I turned an open vessel out of the one half. The voids were filled with Inlace Resin and crushed turquoise.  The second one was turned as a bowl after a "design opportunity " presented its self. 

The finish is Danish Oil.
