5” diameter and 4” tall.
Among my favorite woods to turn, this species is not actually a true cedar, but rather a juniper. It is known for its aromatic smell when left unfinished and the beautiful burgundy and even purple coloring in some presentations. I very much like the contrast between the lighter colored sapwood and the darker heartwood apparent in this species. These trees are evergreens and as other trees lose their foliage in the fall, this species remains wonderfully green all the way through the winter. This particular form is one of my favorites among my small cedar pieces. It has a perfect lip at the top and a beautiful color and grain pattern.
