    Very pretty.

    Wow! That's really pretty. I love the contrast between the bark and grain. And the grain itself is just stunning!

    Very nice George, I like it a lot.

  6. What a beautiful piece of timber, and your form really shows it in a great way!

    First white ash burl I've ever seen. How rare are they? You did a wonderful job on that, anyone would be pleased to own that!

    One of the prettiest natural contrasts in color I've seen. At first glance I thought the wood was bleached. Nice find.

    Nice work, love all the irregularness( is that a word) in the rim, and as said great job keeping that bark on. The grain in the Ash is spectacular.

    Nice! From the still photo it looks like the chatoyance might be incredible when held in the hand. Is it?
