Swap piece

3 3/4” tall by 4” wide cherry, first attempt at hand carving with a v gouge
Nice one Ted! I have a HF to carve and have a band very similar on it. Wasn’t sure if I should carve on leave as is. This one has helped me decide to leave it as is.
 
Started to do a hammered texture on the band but decided to leave it. Not sure if the two textures go together. The carved and the burned stippling. What do you say?
