Lidded Chinaberry Urn
This is a small urn that I turned from a log that I was told was Chinaberry. I have never see it before and it turned out to have some outstanding grain pattern. The lid was made from a couple of discarded spigots from some bracelets and the top knob is black walnut.
The urn holds about a half cup of ashes- big enough for a small cat I would guess.
It is finished with clear lacquer
I have since seen the Chinaberry trees in Tubac Arizona and brought home some of the berries. I was told we have one in our RV park but have not found it yet.
Cheers, Jim

Very nice looking urn Jim
Jim.....Beautiful URN... Nicely Turned. The Chinaberry Wood has a nice Swirling Grain and the Black Walnut Top Knob sets it off nicely.
The clear varnish works well.
