    Swan

    Here is my latest teapot titled: Swan

    10" w x 6.5"d x 7"h
    Curly maple, poplar, cherry, pecan, pau amarillo, ebony, copper, bronze.

    The "feature ring" is made with a marquetry landscape with inlay for the reeds and swan profiles.

    I think this equates nicely to wood turning as well . . . . .

    that's just fantastic Larry,

    Love the way the swan is replicated in the design, and the little black accents are a super touch.

    As a turning/carving this would have been an excellent piece. With the 'feature ring' this goes far beyond just excellent! Your work continues to amaze me.
