The Mulvaney family of Earth have been providing spectacular wood turned artwork throughout the entire sphere of human habitation for a number of years.
Ed Mulvaney, the patriarch, started turning wood as a way to bring in credits he needed to trade for those things he couldn't make himself on his farm in the Southern United Territories of the North-Western Hemisphere of Earth. By sticking to classic forms but with a nod to heavenly bodies such as Saturn's Rings, Ed Mulvaney was able to make his woodworking art universal.
It was also substantial. The Saturn's Rings Globe, for example, had a diameter of almost three feet and weighed in at several hundred pounds. The highly polished resultant figure showed in great detail the grain of the wood, much like the real Saturn shows its cloud patterns. Collectors and galleries felt they were getting something substantial for their money when they bought a Mulvaney.
When Jason Mulvaney, Ed's son, joined the family business, he not only became a wood turning artist in his own right but also he expanded the scope of the audience by marketing the family's woodwork wherever humanity had settled. Many of these settlers had never set foot on Earth, but knowing they had a piece of art grown in the soil of humanity's birthplace brought them great pleasure.
James Mulvaney, Jason's son, has already started creating small pieces, and it's expected he will carry on the family business . . .
