    Cherry Hollow Form

    Just finished this piece of Cherry I got from Jim Ketron last year.

    With bark on it I had a 50-50 chance of getting some figure on top, Murphy is still riding on my shoulder.

    It finished at 9-1/2" x 4" and is finished with 4 coats of Wipe On Poly. The collar is a piece of walnut burl and really has some stunning figure in it.

    Thanks for looking.

    Great job. Like the grain on the bottom more than the top. Since people always turn them over to look at the bottom, that is OK.

    Dick that is one lovely piece. The wood and form combination caped with the collar makes it a special addition to this forum. Thanks for sharring it with us.
