Cedar of Lebanon
« on: October 23, 2019, 04:47:43 PM »
14 " Cedar of Lebanon beautiful figuring.
This came from a Private Estate in Devon it was cut down about a year ago and roughed out soon after .
The second pic is the wood roughed out
Myself and three mates were given the opportunity to help ourselves to wood that had been cut down.
There was Yew,Turkey Oak Holm Oak and Cedar of Lebanon.


Regards George

Cedar is quite lovely, not the easiest to get a high polish on but almost always beautiful, Looks to me like you have a few bowls to make George  ;D
