Small Maple burl hollowform

[John Spitters]

4 1/2" x 7 1/2" to tip of finial
The finial was made from a piece of strait grained Birch then I applied leather dye and wax.
The Maple form was first bleached after which I applied a wipe on poly.
I took the pics using different backgrounds to hopefully show the details better.


C & C welcome

That is really nice, John.......one does not see many natural edge hollow forms! Nice work!

[Ted Calver]

It's a beauty John. I really like the flow and the dyed burl came out great. Nice job!

[Jim Burr]

Jackpot John!!! I did one of those a few years ago from BLM and it was cool! Glad you still have your knuckles! Your finish is great too!

[Michelle Rich]

I think the darker background shows the dark & light A-ok the high uneven shoulders are of interest and the finial is a beauty

[Bernie Weishapl]

That is a beauty John. I like form and the wood. The finial looks great.

[Dennis Ford]

This is a beautiful piece. You captured the character of the wood perfectly and the black finial is as good as any I have seen.

[Kathy Marshall]

Very nice John! Cool form with the ne top, pretty chunk of burl and a great job on the finial!

[Allan Ferguson]

I am in agreement with the other posters. Like it!
