All the canyon shaped vessels are similar in shape to the vessel to the right. Their sizes can range from very large like Grand Canyon above, to approximately 18"T x 20"L x 6"W (like pictured). The prices vary depending on the size, wood and if any folds, bends or waves are added.
Please inquire about having one custom made for your decor.
"MARGARITA VILLE"
This piece was created from Choke Cherry. It was tunneled out and then widened at the top, where folds and bends were added. The end result resembled a fountain or a large margarita glass. Turquoise was inlayed into the natural cracks and a flagstone base was used to perch the piece on. Approx 18" T x 8" diameter at the widest.

TULIP BUD
Mesquite
This vase had folds and bends carved into it that curved up the piece and scallups were created at the top giving it a tulip bud look. The inside curves were carved mirroring the outside. Turquoise and Coral were inlayed into the natural cracks. This piece can be closely duplicated. Approximate size of pictured vase was 16"T x 9"W

"GRAND CANYON"
Even though this picture doesn't show the true size of this carved vessel, it does live up to its name. Created from an approximately 800 year old Alligator Juniper Tree, this piece is approximately 38" Tall, 32" wide and has a 20" depth. It is magnificent and really shows how beautiful Juniper can be. Turquoise was inlayed into some of the natural cracks and voids and the rest were left open. This piece would be a masterpiece to display on a large table and would dominate the conversation.

"SURPRISE SENSATION"
Carved from Choke Cherry, this vessel is Scotts' favorite thus far. The folds and bends show off the figure of the wood and the intricate carving that was done. A walnut bowtie was inlayed into a natural crack. Otherwise all the natural cracks were left alone. The piece sits atop a walnut base.
Approximately 18" tall with a diameter of 21"

SOLD
"TWISTER"
Alligator Juniper
This beauty actually was 5ft tall with a diameter of 3ft round. The tree was approximately 1000 years old, making it very rare. The carving twists and curves up the piece, both inside and out. The top of the piece was actually the root ball area, so we left that as natural as possible. There is also a little burl on the piece. It stands on a redwood burl base. Both turquoise and abalone shell were inlayed into some of the natural cracks and voids. This has been the most attention getting piece we have ever created and I'm sure it will be for whom ever purchases it.
SOLD

"Astaire"
Alligator Juniper w/Turquoise
This vessel was named after Fred Astaire because it looks like it's dancing. Scott carved graceful folds and waves so the piece looks like it's flowing. And the wimsical feet add to that impression. It is approximately 14" diameter & 12" tall This piece would be perfect placed on the dinning table for all to view.
SOLD
Mesquite Wavy Bowls
These are some of our simple wavy bowls. The ones pictured below are made from mesquite, but they can be made out of other woods that we have on hand. They can come with stone inlay or without. These little gems are a nice way to add one of our creations to your collection or give as a gift.
"Wormy"
Mesquite
This was one of our favorite pieces that we have created to date. And we are so happy that it found a home with a dear friend. It got it's name because it had so many worm holes in it. We decided to not do any inlay in this piece, since the holes lent themselves to the overall design. Scott carved larger folds and bends into this vessel and brought the bottom down to a small point where it sits on an ebonized walnut base. Dimensions 12" L x 10" W x 12" T
SOLD
"Bullet Proof"
Alligator Juniper Burl
This was quite an interesting piece to create. While carving it, Scott kept hitting bullets. Each one doing a job on both the chainsaw and grinders. Living in the SW, finding bullets in a log is no surprise. But this piece was riddled with them. One bullet was left in the piece and another is glued to the base, adding a bit of humor. This vase shaped piece has gentle folds and waves carved into it, making it very delicate looking. The burling is throughout it, making it quite a collection. It has inlayed turquoise and sits on an ebonized walnut base. Dimensions 16" T x 10" diameter at the top.
SOLD
