Exaggeration

Here is a little dude I finally finished. I wanted to try a goblet with exaggeration as a theme. The cup and base are very close to 1/8" thick and the stem...well...... isn't! Just another experiment of form for the stem.

I am not quite for sure what the wood is. I bought this blank on eBay and forgot to write the name down. It IS some kind of Australian-esk burl cap. Very dense and hard, like mallee. (might be brown mallee). African Blackwood stem.

3 1/4" x 6 1/2". Several coats of tung oil finish, buffed.

Comments and critiques are always welcome, thanks
Scott,that is one tricky 'connection" between a very nicely done cup & base, I rolled the picture up & down to view just the top & then the base, great result.
:cool:
