Has anyone ever preserved the red streaks in a finished osage bow? there's a better ring just below this one,( a very fresh stave) and if there's no way to preserve these, I'll probably chase that one.
Have another stave that will probably have these in the belly, where they should feather out with the fades. I assume they fade and disappear as the wood dries, and there's no way to "fix" the color, but had to ask....
