A lustrous burnish perfectly complements the stunning natural woodgrain surface, causing the golden honey and butterscotch hues to shimmer in the sunlight, beautifully contrasting the swirling tones of chocolate brown and caramel. Size: 5.1" Diameter x 1.8" H (13 cm x 4.6 cm)
Provenance: private Newport Beach, California, USA collection
