Kerux, by the look of the structure of that wood a blow out would be highly risky. Well done on the end product.

Very nice form, shape, and finish. Well done Kerux.

Very nice Kerux. Was the collar made of walnut? Nice spalting.

Truly fine. You’ve taken a miracle of nature and amplified and refined it. Anyone would be proud to have this sitting in their home.

That is just wonderful.

I really love the spalting on this piece of wood. The form is quite pleasing to the eye. Nice job!

Well executed. I love the classic, simple shape. It accents the beauty of the wood. Very elegant.

Beautiful Turning and Knot!!

Was the knot near the top and the one along the side continuous through the center of the vase?

Good Luck on the contest!!
