Title: Indonesian palm root
Post by: Ryaly2dogs on July 07, 2020, 08:32:54 AM

3.5-inch finished sphere made from exotic Indonesian petrified palm root.  Had to go shopping on EBay to acquire the rough, but it was a satisfying result.  The root "eyes" really pop!

I bet no one says it’s caddies fly larvae.  LOL.  Beautiful piece.

To Blue Wood:  Similar but not quite the same as Caddis Fly Larvae material.  However, both fetch a high price! 

Cheers.
