Almost a tobacco sunburst! very nice.....Looks like a pretty thick build of finish..lacquer??
I like it... a lot.

great form and super duper finish! It does remind one of the sun-burst patterns seen on the face of some high end guitars. Nice job!

You would have a hard time guessing that was wood from the photo.

That is very different. I wouldn't even have known it was wood from the picture. Looks like a great way to make something plain standout!

I keep coming back to this piece. There's something very pleasing about it... I think it's the combination of the coloring and the finish. As the others have mentioned, it does remind me of pottery or glass. Very interesting.
