Cradle

This is a sort of companion peace to "Wave". They share the same long shape and the finials are almost identical. This is another example of stretching out shapes to make for a different, and hopefully interesting design. The dots on the vessel are aluminum rods and the squiggles were done with the NSK dental drill.

As I usually do, I've put a small surprise under the top. The "silver orb" is a ball bearing.

Santos mahogany, maple, ebonized maple, brass pins

C&C welcome
