Hot off the lathe...

Freshly turned Jacaranda that comes from Pretoria Girls High school. I have taken a break from doing detail work and started on the pile I got from a fellow woodturner. It's about 200 mm dia.

Moving along....

I have added some depth by recessing the petals. I still have to smooth them but I love how when the vessel is held it "speaks" to the fingers.
I have also started to cut around the petals on the edge

A closer view

Some items completed, some in progress

A more complex flower vessel than the first. Made from Camphor.
This is the one I have been busy with the last couple of posts. I completed it in time for the yearly exhibition on the club.

I seem to be on a roll with the flowers! I got good feedback this weekend at the club exhibition.
Turned from Karee

Another flower vessel in the making.....
