My latest styled turning
I am really happy with this piece – I would very much like your comments, questions and critiques.
A 14 month plus project!
Let me know what you think - Of course to see it in person gives you a completely different appreciation for the piece - The depth and demission of the Orange Agate figure / grain is Awesome! The wood looks to be as deep as the eye can see.
This piece offers a little of everything, Titled "Sunset" for the beauty of the golden amber orange colors from the Orange Agate wood. The high gloss finish from my "new secret" oil based finish on the vase and Amboyna Burl look gorgeous. The Black Ebony collar has a matte black textured finish to add a little contrast to help the beautiful sliced agate to sit up proud.
Wood;
Orange Agate
African Black Ebony
Amboyna Burl. with Sliced Polished Agate - This piece of polished sliced agate is a perfect match - It contains every shade of brown, amber, gold and black that the vase has.
Approximate dimension:
Vase Dia. at widest point = 6"
Vase Only Height = 6 ¾"
Inside Depth = 5 ½"
Vase with Finial Height = 10"
Collar Dia. = 2 ½"
Collar Opening = 1 ¼"
