This shot glass is turned from Leopardwood—a South American hardwood known for its distinctive flecked grain and rich reddish-brown tone. The surface reveals a tight, shimmering pattern of medullary rays that catch the light like scales, giving the piece a subtle texture and visual rhythm.
The form is tall and clean, allowing the wood’s natural figure to take center stage. Finished with polymerized walnut oil, beeswax, and carnauba wax, the surface is smooth and sealed, enhancing the contrast between the darker base tones and the lighter flecks that ripple across the grain.
Leopardwood is part of Gentry Crafted’s global-sourcing collection—woods acquired through trusted international relationships and selected for their rarity, beauty, and character. This piece is bold but refined, with a grain that speaks for itself
