Just pine, one burning one brushing

the green makes the tree foliage “pop”!

Shou Sogi Ban is an old Japanese technique of burning and brushing the wood to get a 3D effect on the wood grain. I used it on this stand I built. The close up in black is of a shoji screen I made using this technique.

Yes, sometimes

Belongs to a collector friend, I get to cherry pick in trade for daiza work🤩🤩🤩

Heaven!

A long while ago, I purchased two blocks of this really rare rosewood burl, the rarest actually, Amboyna rosewood burl. Gorgeous color and very hard to find as well as Been saving it until the right stone could be matched with it. I knew this brecciated jasper was the first one when I saw it!!!!

Peter Macasieb sent me this photo of his display with one of my large shoji screens He ordered as backdrop. Really makes a difference in the presentation!

Gorgeous Ziricote wood Shohin stand 6.5” x 8.75” x 6” tall Beautiful and unusual “cloudy” grain!

Chechen rosewood (Carribean) Shohin stand 8.5” x 12” x 5” tall Rich, golden grain!

Surprised after coming back to Bonsainut after being gone a while how few people are posting stones! I know you guys have nice stones out there, I meet you at the shows! Please share!

Nice red color and wind/sand polish

Oh yeah! Burmese rosewood! Expensive and hard to find! 5” x 9” x 4” tall

I obtained a whole collection of Ca desert stones, most of them are these Indian Paint Stones😊
