Masterpiece of Nature & Craftsmanship: Radiant Oak-Turned Egg on an Artistic Fixed Pedestal, Adorned with a Dazzling Flower Gem Conch



In the heart of every piece of reclaimed wood lies a story waiting to be told. Tom, a seasoned Military Veteran with two decades of service, transforms these stories into tangible masterpieces. With every turn of his lathe, every precise chisel, he unveils nature's hidden splendor, crafting an ode to resilience and rebirth.



This particular creation — an oak-turned egg — stands as a testament to nature's unparalleled beauty and the craftsman's unparalleled skill. Seated gracefully on a 4-3/4" round pedestal, its silhouette is further embellished by the radiant glow of a Flower Gem Conch, a jewel that mirrors the intricate details of life and art.



While the wood's natural state — with its imperfections, wormholes, splits, and cracks — is a poignant reminder of life's imperfect journey, the polyurethane sealer and wood wax lend the piece both a protective sheen and longevity. Weighing a substantial 1 lb 15 oz, this work of art conveys gravitas, both in form and essence.



Tom's journey with woodworking is more than a pursuit of artistic expression. It is his sanctuary, a therapeutic haven where he seeks and finds tranquility amidst the challenges of PTSD. As you embrace this piece, you're not merely acquiring art; you're imbibing a fragment of Tom's spirit, his unwavering commitment, and his journey of healing and resilience.



This isn't just a decorative piece. It's a narrative of nature, artistry, and the indomitable human spirit. Add this conversation starter to your cherished collection and let its story unfold in your space.
