Italian Bardigilio Abalaster

[laurie sullivan]

Here is my effort for the day. I found this in a box I got on my last alabaster order. It resembles marble and a dream to turn. I recently purchased Craig Jacksons Ci1 roughing tool for this reason and it was soooo easy to turn and to not have to sharpen on every other pass, was a time saver. I was able to hollow it in no time. the little piece was the test piece for the new tool. This stands about 3 inches tall and 4 at the widest.

thanks for looking

Laurie

The lip was natural and I decided to leave it.

Looks fantastic, but now you have added number 127 to my list of things to get and try to make. I guess I will have to live to 133 years old to accomplish everything on my bucket list.
Really, that looks fantastic.
