This marvelous piece has been turned by Pierre Dupond, an amateur who has been taught by Jean François Escoulen.
He named this piece "pas de deux" as he wanted to represent a dancing couple.
The spheres are hollow and communicating.
In addition, I think Pierre has really been taking advantage of the veneer of the wood. Looking at the large image, you will see that one could imagine that the couple is kissing.
Presented at a wood turners gathering, this piece won the first prise.
Congratulation to Pierre
