I've got a bunch of these pheasantwood blanks right now, but particularly like this one despite all the defects...maybe because of the defects! It is clearly a piece from a crotch or area with several branches coming off of it. Displays what must be windshake or some sort of void on one side and checking throughout. I sealed everything completely with CA and poured extra down the checks, but stabilising would be a good idea before turning. Stunning grain. Any whiteness in the pics is from the CA glue drying. Seems not fully seasoned. I got it from a farmer who had cut it on his land and he had just sort of left it out. How long, I don't know. No bugs present. 30$ plus international shipping. Sizes are marked in CM on the piece. Last pic is unsealed just to see it.
