32" tall, 60" diameter vase. It has a round base on the bottom which is wood. It is hand laid triangle shape pieces (1000 or more pieces is my estimate) of what appears to be some kind of bone? ivory? ceramic? tile all around from top to bottom. The inside of the vase appears to also be wood or other material which has a black coating, I assume to waterproof the inside of the vase. Has a tree/plant design in which the tree stem/bark itself appears to be some sort of lucite looking material. It has flowers and leaves which appear to be made of ceramic which is outlined/bordered with copper and bonded onto the tile. All of the leaves & flowers appear to be colored with ceramic/pottery glaze but I could be wrong, could be colored/stained glass or something else. Based on the design it appears to be oriental.
