Lovely shape, finish etc What size is it George? I ask as you make so many smaller pieces yet still maintain the forms so well.

George,

Good to see you posting here again, it's been too long.

Until you gave the size I'd of laid money on it being 6" to 7" in size. the detail in your many boxes show though here, such perfect form in something so small.

Fascinated by your use of EEE on walnut though, I'd have thought it to open grained to give such a deep finish.
