A bit of this and a bit of that.......

The main hollow form is a piece of what I was told is Norfolk pine but it hasn't got the colour I expected, it is 5" diameter. The collar is a scrap of wenge, the finial a combination of a bit of ebony and pewter (recycled of course) the three feet are turned from a bit of beech dowel I had in the scrap box and ebonised. C&C welcome as always.

Hi Pete

I don't know about A bit of this and a bit of that I think A mish mash would be a better title.Sorry mate not for me.

I prefer it without the stopper/finial I'm afraid.

Norfolk Island Pine is not easy to come by, not even common as an ornamental tree here in the UK, nice to see it available and being used.

Sorry Pete, I don't like this one. Nothing works on it for me.

Isn't it good how opinions vary. I like all the bits the others dislike, but I don't like the feet, they just look out of place.

I guess it's a 'conversation piece'.
One of your rare pieces that doesn't work for me, Pete. I find it too disjointed. Individual elements are fine, but to me they don't flow to form a 'whole'.
