Turned Wood Bran Vase. Los Angeles: F.G. Thayer, ca. 1913. Finely turned vase is filled with confetti or bran and the lid is clamped on. When removed, a live hare, sweets, or nearly any other object has replaced the loose bran. All elements made from turned wood, including the shell and lid gimmick. Small cracks and chips as expected, but functional. One of the earliest known examples of Floyd Thayer’s masterful turned wood magic products.
