Very attractive teapot! I like this. Don't know that I've seen many/any segmented ones that stood out in my mind, but this one will for a while! Very nice.

very nice, Larry

[Steve Schlumpf]

Beautiful work Larry! Great form and I really like the included scenery!!

[Jim Burr]

And you segmented it too!? You are a monster Larry!

[John Keeton]

Larry, I am not a big teapot fan, but your workmanship here is excellent! Great joinery, nice lines, and a good looking spout. Love the wood combination and the style of the bail.

that is a tea pot but do not get it wet

[Larry Marley]

Thank you for the kind comments. I wanted to enter somthing in the fair, and only had 7 days to get it done. So it was a little stressful not knowing exactly how to fit the spout, and having to wait until everything else was completed first to give it a try. It still needs some work, but I got it to a point where I could take a photo for the entry.

[Bernie Weishapl]

Great form and great looking pot. Love the wood combo.

[Mike Golka]

Another beautiful piece Larry. Great job!

[Ted Evans]

Extremely nice Larry, I would not even think of attempting such a project.

[Roland Martin]

Very, very well done, Larry. I admire your patience!

[Denny Rice]

The men and women in this Turners forum continue to impress me to no end with the things they create with a lathe. I see pens, vases, and tea pots just as examples. I know I am a newbie to this spinning thing but a lot of you guys should call yourself artists! Way cool.:D

[Kathy Marshall]

Very nice Larry! Love the color combination with the black accents and "mountain range" scene.

[Alan Trout]

That is a wonderful segmented tea pot. Well done

Thank you again everyone!

[Faust M. Ruggiero]

Beautiful, Larry,
You have that one down to a Tea

[John Beaver]

Larry,

Good to see you making and posting again. Don't tell me you have a job that gets in the way of turning ?

You did some really nice stuff with this Tea Pot, I really like the handle. Attaching the spout and handles get's kind of tricky and it looks like you nailed it.

Good luck in the fair. I had too much going on to enter this year, but I'm sure I will again next year.

I'd say your first attempt at a teapot was a success :D This one is spectacular. The workmanship is top notch, and the scenery is definitely the clencher! I really like the curve in the spout.

[Larry Marley]

Hey John, Sorry to hear you will not be there this year. I have been turning a lot of production pieces, so no time to be creative. So I missed the San Diego fair and just made the OC fair.

[George Morris]

Larry looks great!
