Bottle Stopper - Fancy

This is a cast polyester resin bottle stopper that has been lathe turned and then embellished on a rose engine lathe, followed by a Beall buff.

Looks like cut crystal. I would expect that it has a warmer feel to it than crystal.

Can't tell from the picture, do you get a prismatic effect from all the facets?

Looks great.

Ed,

Yes, a curved surface on poly resin works just like a magnifying glass, so with this matrix, the effect its pretty wild.
