Cherry Healed Branch Knot with Brass

$220.00

THE STORY

A small Black Cherry healed branch knot transformed into a compact sculptural vessel with the cambium layer exposed.

Fuming draws the wood toward deep maroon-brown, wine-coloured tones, while UV exposure furthers the intensity.
Few fine brass and emerald shards are set into the natural opening as a restrained metallic accent.
