Crazy Banded HF

Here is a little different HF. I sketched this idea out and hadn't intended on applying it to this particular form, but it evolved into this! This is a large HF, for me. Quite the departure from my usual 4" of so sized HFs. Turned from sycamore and african blackwood for the finial. Add a bt of pyro work, a little dying, a LOT of sanding and reapplying dye and this is the end result. Sealed up with 4 coats of lacquer.

6 1/2" wide x 12" tall.

Comments are always welcome, thanks.
