Ambrosia Maple Urn

A hand-turned urn in ambrosia maple under a dark wooden lid, with the streaks the beetles left running top to bottom.

Ambrosia maple gets its streaks from the ambrosia beetle, which tunnels into the tree and brings a fungus along for the ride. The stains follow the tunnels, so no two pieces come out alike and every one looks planned. It wasn’t. That’s the point.

Material
Ambrosia maple, with a contrasting wooden lid
