Hollow Tree Stump - Very Rare and Collectible!
This is a great botany education specimen, a unique collectible conversation piece, or an awesome base for a clear tabletop.
I have looked and looked for images of a similar stump online and I couldn't find one. It appears to be one of a kind. Feel free to look.
There are two pieces to this listing.
One piece shows how an evergreen tree that was topped had healed. The stump, over time, created a ca...llous that healed and covered the top. You hardly ever see this.The second piece is the hollow stump. It is very uncommon and unusual. It eerily shows how the branches originate within the tree. This stump has clear plexi-glass screwed to the top and bottom to protect the inner branching.
It is unclear whether the two pieces came from the same tree. They are of similar diameter size and appearance but don't make a perfect geometric match, and the hollow cavity does not extend into the top piece. They could be from the same tree, but not adjacent to each other.
The pieces were previously held by a major agricultural university's botany department - hence the writing "Botany Dept." written on the side (as shown in the 4th photo).
The top calloused piece measures 8 inches high and has a diameter of 12.5 inches. The hollow piece measures 14 inches high and 12.5 inches diameter.
Please see pictures. As shown in the photos, the hollow piece has a crack in it. The piece is reinforced with metal banding to provide strength. What you see is what you will receive -nothing more or less.
