The Mrs. commandeered this vase and asked for gloss. Don't want to bore you with multiple postings of the same thing, but I thought it was enough of a change to at least show a side by side. Not sure whether to buff for more gloss or take it back a little. The pine has some texture to it and some cracks are opening in the branch "eyes." The gloss highlights those things, good and bad.

Gloss WOP. C&C appreciated. Thanks for looking (again).

That really works for me. The knot are like great big eyes.

Wow, what an eye popper. The gloss brings out all the character of the wood. Momma has good taste. Wish her a Merry Christmas.

Real nice Doug, looked good with the original finish, but yes it does look better with the high gloss, very nice vase :D

I agree with Leo; nothing wrong with the original but the gloss kicks it up a notch. Very nice.

Works for me. I am a fan of high gloss on NIP.
