    Very nice! I love the contrast of the bleached rim against the dark walnut and the dark lines just tie the two together.

    Super nice piece John! I agree the bleached/carved rim is a nice touch.

    John, you nailed it again. I love the contrast created with the bleached rim and, of course, the scale. Well done! TB

    So tell me how did you bleach the edge like that? I guess I am asking how you contained the bleach on a small area like that. Thanks in advance Jared
