Devine Pool
Sculptural basin made from densely welded volcanic tuff collected near Crane, Oregon. This particular tuff is part of the 10 million-year-old Devine Canyon ignimbrite, a huge explosion which blanketed hundreds of square miles in red hot ash. The deepest parts were so hot that the weight of the overlying ash caused them to fuse into glass, making this dense rock full of crystal and flattened blobs of pumice and obsidian. Thousands of years of weathering near the earth's surface has coated the natural surfaces of this piece with red iron oxide and black manganese oxide.
