Mappa Burl Shot Glass (Stabilized, Tall Form, One of One) Dimensions: Approx. 4⅝" tall × 1⅝" diameter
This towering vessel—one of the tallest in the Gentry Crafted catalog—is hand-turned from stabilized Mappa Burl (Populus nigra), a wood renowned for its dramatic figure and unpredictable voids. The swirling grain dances between teal, black, and earthy brown, with resin-infused stabilization locking in its wild beauty and reinforcing the structure for long-term use.
The impressive height gives it a presence that feels almost ceremonial, while its slender diameter ensures it remains comfortably grippable. This specific Mappa Burl carries a story of connection, acquired through an international "global trade gag" that turned curiosity into a network of trusted world suppliers. It is a singular creation that stands tall as both functional art and a testament to global sourcing.
