Jim Silva I used transtint dye with DNA and sprayed the outer edge with the lathe running. Then applied blue right from the bottle, after it dried I then sanded it back. Applied red transting let it dry sanded it back some and then added more blue from the bottle. I added the blue with dye and paper towel then sanded back the last time. Finished with 10 coats of lacquer and polished it back with micro mesh Hope this helped you

Jim i apply the dye and sand it back. I first did the rim with blue and DNA using a airbrush. I then applied blue on the balance, let it dry and sand it back. Then added red let it dry and sand it back. I only sanded as much as I needed to getting the effect I wanted

Ron, it is almost breathtaking it's so good looking, but, there's only one dish is there not? The first pic is of the inside, and the second pic is of the exterior, right? I see that some of the earlier posters, think they are looking at two separate dishes. Then again, maybe I'm wrong.

Len no you are right. Many think it is two different pieces but they are not. Not sure what happened but the bottom did not take the dya the same as the top. ?? Don't understand but that is the way it is. Ron

Nice concept, the color really adds to the look of fragility.
