Short stopper...

[LouisQC]

This one fought me all the way. It was brittle or maybe it was my technique this afternoon... it came shorter than wanted but it's still nice.

I think the proportions came out just right... one reason I stopped making the cone bottle stoppers was they always seem too tall and too big. I like the smaller cones and when I get back into wine stoppers, want to contact Ruth and get a few.

Looks great and worth the fight. I like the form!

NOt too long, just took to long to get the right design opportunity.
Nicely done.

I use to make stoppers that were almost 3" tall, at least that was the blank size when I started so they were a little shorter.
Sold very few.
Started making them shorter and starting selling more
People told me they prefer them shorter.
Whatever the customer wants

Almost everyone commented to me that the stoppers were too tall to fit in the 'fridge...
primary reason I've gone to the "hidden cork" stoppers that fit down over the bottle... they went over really big at my last two shows.

Chuck, I really like the stopper, nice shape and pretty material design. I want to learn more about the hidden cork bottle stopper that fits down over the neck of the bottle.
