Glen, What material is it? Is it painted? It is really nice, love the finished shape. Most times overworking something fails but you nailed this one. Gary
Thanks for the kind words. This piece is roughly 3.5" x 5.5" and is ambrosia maple with a few coats of rattle can lacquer.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
"I fiddled with it some. "
I'd say you're a pretty good fiddle player. This is really well done.

Glen,
You say :
This was an hollow form
Did you have an other reason than artistic purpose to do so ?
I don't have a suggestion for a title but it is a stunning object
maybe "Gap & Gaps"
