Wood Turning Pepper Wood

This log had already started cracking before I got it on my lathe, but I have never woodturned pepper wood before so I was excited to see what the grain looked like. The cracks did make finishing difficult, so this vase definitely isn't perfect, but the grain did not disappoint!
