Pink Ivory (African wood) & Glass

Pink Ivory is a very hard wood, known especially for its beautiful color. There exists a story claiming the trees only exist in a region controlled by an ancient tribe that believes past spirits of tribal members live in the trees and that the only things allowed to be made of the wood are the chief leader's staffs. This story is bogus. I know the wood dealer who knew the guys who came up with the story in order to elevate the value of the wood. Story or no story, the wood is still valuable. One of my favorite things about making sculptural art is taking an object and increasing its value.

I do know where my amateur videos need improvement, but I work better with tools than screens, so bear with me.
