Wooden Apothecary

3 1/8" x 3 1/8" x 8"

Maple, mahogany, elm and oak

Wooden apothecary jar

Each component of this piece was produced by woodturning on a lathe.

In Wooden Apothecary, I chose woods that had unique characteristics and tonal colors that I felt would compliment each other when combined in the final piece. The body of the jar is curly maple, which is a grain patten that appears to ripple when it interacts with light. The mahogany that I used for the top was given to me in my first woodturning lesson. I chose it for it's color contrast with the maple and elm burl inset in the top. The finial is made of reclaimed oak that has been dyed black to showcase it's open grain and provide a dramatic focal point for the overall piece. There is a small unfilled worm hole on it's side that is common to find in reclaimed woods. It adds a touch of whimsy and unique character that is a part of its story.
