Tigerwood Vase #1

$300.00

Tigerwood earns its name. Cut end-grain and stacked so every layer mirrors the one beside it, the result is a bold, repeating chevron that runs across all four faces — no quiet side, no plain angle. Wherever you set it, the grain is doing something.

Finished in polyurethane to deepen the natural amber and red tones and protect the surface. A 2” x 2” square glass insert sits inside, so you can use it with fresh or dried flowers.

Overall size: 3” x 3” x 9” (Glass Insert: 2” x 2” x 8”)

Product Details

  • The glass insert handles all water contact — remove it for cleaning. Wipe the wood exterior with a dry or barely damp cloth only. Re-oil occasionally with mineral oil to keep the cocobolo looking its best.

  • Tigerwood, also known as Goncalo Alves, is a dense, durable hardwood native to Central and South America. It gets its name from its dramatic grain — bold streaks of deep reddish-brown and dark espresso running through a warm orange base, much like the stripes of its namesake. No two pieces are alike, making it one of the most visually striking woods used in fine woodworking today.

  • All vases are fitted around standard glass vases. Amazon, and other stores you can find online sell 2” x 2” x 8” glass vases. Make sure that the outside dimensions aren’t larger, as can happen sometimes.
