     I turned the top of this wine bottle stopper from bubinga wood native to Equatorial Africa. Once I turned the top to shape, I cut a precise recess to accept the desert jasper stone insert also from Africa. The black rings are burned in with a wire carefully held against the rapidly rotating work.
