Baggley Vessel
Created on International Women’s Day, this hollow vessel portrays the universal feminine aspects of birth, restoration, renewal, creation, receptivity and motherhood. Made from elm, the outer portion was carved away to reveal a new form emerging from within. To highlight the different forms, a red stain was applied to the outer portion. It’s an eye-catching accent piece all on its own but could also be used as a vase for dried flowers.
Height: 3-1/4”
Top Diameter: 1-3/4”
Maximum Diameter: 5-3/4”
Bottom Diameter: 3-3/8”
A botanist and naturalist, Herma Baggley was the first woman who worked as a ranger for the National Park Service. She was tremendously knowledgeable about Yellowstone National Park and its plants. She believed that plant life furnished most of the color and beauty in the park and over all the earth. As co-author of the first book on the plants of Yellowstone she stated, “It is difficult to imagine what a drab place this world would be, were it not beautified by the infinite variety of forms of plant life.”
