They're made out of a piece of a cherry branch a local business trimmed early last summer. The grain is different than in other cherry pieces I've turned with splotches of different colors. I took pictures from three different angles on each to show this. Maybe it's from freezing?
They're both finished with paraffin wax; the larger has a coat of carnuba wax on top of this, which made it smoother and looks nicer. I really like not having to spend a week applying wipe-on poly, though don't believe this will be nearly as durable.
This is the first one I turned - I think I like the form on this one better than the second.
This one is slightly larger and ended up with a trumpet shape for the top.
