re: Traditional Norwegian Amber

Thanks Klaus, Thorreain and Bob. These vessels were not turned. They were made from staves similar to this one but with a lid. The staves were not glued, they were held together with bands like the fake ones on my amber or using willow or birch bindings like on this one in the photo below. This stave bucket is water tight. I tested it when it was finished, but it dries out a bit in winter and then swells again in summer. Kind of simple calendar!
