I thought it WAS a wall decoration! I would much rather have that than most "art" I see
On topic, I have lots of osage around, picking thorns from my arm a few minutes ago from hunting this morning! I love the stuff for knife and tool handles. It also makes an awesome bow! It will darken to a dark red brown with age, but then I like that too! Good stuff all around as long as you respect it's tendancy to prefer to bend than compress.
