This is a vase, turned from a branch of a tree called Barba di Yònkuman (Acacia glauca, Albizia lebbeck).
It’s a tree that grows in most areas of our island Curacao.
It’s called Barba di Yonkuman or “Young Man’s Beard” because of the beard like appearance of it’s popped seeds.
It’s turned with a bowl gouge and hollowing tools from David Ellsworth.
Artist: Hugo Sjak-Shie
