I have been working on this one for about a month now and finally got a couple coats of finish on it and I think it lookd good. It is 15" tall and about 9" across at the widest. The light band in the collar is a clear piece of hard maple to offset the Black walnut. Now I have to finish the bottom and buff it out and hope someone needs it real bad for their collection!
Thanks for looking,
Jeff

That's a neat combination, Jeff. I like the bead on the shoulder - nice touch, and that is an awesome piece of burl!

Cool wood, Jeff, but I just have to say it - looks like a giant duck call! :p

Hate to say it but it does bear a resemblance to the one in my closet.:) Great piece of burl and it is quite striking!

Jeff - the overall form reminds me of one of those ancient amphora vases. Nice work!
