Hi All
I finished this vase the other day and I think it one of the prettiest bits of camphor that I have seen. it has colour,swirls and ripples all in a piece that is 120 high and 100 in dia, the walls are from 4 mm at the top to 8 mm at the base, finished to 600 and 4 coats of Mirrortone Precat 20/30
love your comments
Regards
Graham
