Some of that kentucky mud
Unglazed
Maybe an odd oval ?
Grays ?

The needles are a beautiful blue green

The trees about 21 inches tall
The busted up colander is 10” wide 4 inches deep

Nice!
You want to go a bit shallower than the colander? Same depth?
Kentuky muds are such great bodies to work with and throw great natural tones in gas reduction. I'll get started soon to make the next gas fire.

Definitely a bit shallower ! I can’t wait to see what you come up with ! Thanks !

Yea the deadwood is very aged , the bark is nice too , reasons for me buying this tree , I also wanted to experiment with this particular species in my climate . There are very few really nice ones that I know of around . They reduce needle size very well .

I wondered the same. I have a couple exactly like it.
I love them!
