Honduran Rosewood Burl

This teapot is made from Honduran Rosewood Burl, extremely heavy, and pretty hard, but requires next to no finish, mainly a good buff.
The handle and spout are made from African Blackwood. I dyed the handle and feathered it into the lid.
Comments welcome,
Michael

Absolute knockout Michael, the inner depth of that timber is just fabulous.
Congrat's on the WOW cover today from Alby.
