    Will you do any additional finishing on it?
    no, i am in the non-shiny camp, one coat of velvit oil, let stand 10-15 minutes, wipe excess off

    thanks Roger and Harvey for your comments

    Sweet shape Charlie. I have some osage I want to use for some hollowforms and I think this might be a nice one to try.

    Had the velvit oil been applied in the photo? The BP that I have done seems to darken with either Grapeseed Oil for food use or a Danish Oil type finish for more gloss.

    My first impression is of a pleasing and functional form! I can see your sister using that for quilting - perhaps storing bits of fabric in it while she quilts.
