Pair of Turned Natural Edge Wood Vases or Pillars

This is a pair of decorative cylindrical objects, likely vases or decorative pillars, crafted from solid wood using woodturning techniques. The items exhibit a honey-toned light brown color with a prominent, straight grain pattern. Their construction is characterized by a series of concentric, horizontal rings and grooves (beading) carved along their height, which tapers slightly at the top and bottom. A defining feature of both pieces is the 'live edge' or natural void element; large, jagged sections of raw, dark brown bark-covered wood are integrated into the smooth, turned surface. These voids provide a striking organic contrast to the symmetrical, lathe-turned geometry. The left piece features a more porous, craggy inclusion, while the right piece has a smoother, deeply recessed dark wood section. Condition appears good with a glossy finish that highlights the grain, though the natural inclusions are inherently delicate and prone to drying or light dust accumulation. There are no visible maker's marks, suggesting a handcrafted or studio-art origin, likely from the late 20th to early 21st century. The craftsmanship is evident in the balance between the polished finish and the preservation of the wood's rugged, natural state.
