Crown Burl is hand-turned from an exceptional piece of stabilized Maple burl, selected for its density, complexity, and unusually rich figure. The burl displays deep swirling grain, layered eyes, and strong contrast between light and dark growth, creating visual depth that reveals new detail from every angle.
The form is taller and more substantial than most shot glasses, giving it a commanding presence while remaining comfortable in the hand. Clean cylindrical lines and a gently rounded rim provide balance and restraint, allowing the burl’s natural movement to remain the focal point without distraction.
Stabilization reinforces the wood’s structure and resistance to moisture, making the piece suitable for functional use while preserving the burl’s natural character. It is finished with a food-safe blend of walnut oil, beeswax, and carnauba wax, producing a smooth surface with a soft, natural sheen.
Crown Burl represents the upper tier of what burl wood can offer—carefully selected material shaped with intention and control. Individually turned and finished by hand, this shot glass is designed to be both used and appreciated over time. As with all Gentry Crafted pieces, it is one of a kind.
