Tea No More

This little corroded tea pot was inspired after watching Niclot Laurent's demonstration a couple weeks ago. This was turned from russian olivewood and stands 1-3/4" tall, not including the handle.
@Steven Forrest , I would be happy to share with you.

For the texture I used a butane torch and burned the heck out of the tea pot then scrubbed with a wire brush. The color is acrylic that is dry brushed, a top coat of archival spray finished it off. I used my fingers to apply the paint to the handle. The tea pot handle is a piece of scrap wire that I stripped out of my old trash compactor that I'm waiting to take to the dump.
