These are lace bobbins I turned from maple and cherry. The design on the handle is wrapped with thread, much the same way a fishing rod is wrapped for decoration. The finish over the threads is a coat of epoxy applied after wrapping the threads. It has been put on a low speed spinner to make the epoxy coating cure evenly, then micromeshed to 15000. Following this, the entire bobbin was given two coats of polyurethane, buffed and waxed.
