The King's Road
[B][I]The King's Road[/I][/B]

The surface of this open form exposes the end grain of white oak that was sequentially sliced on an alternating bias. This ring-staved turning exhibits a chatoyant illusory effect amongst the staves. The foot is composed of thirty-two pie shaped wedges.

[B][I]The King's Road[/I][/B] has a lacquer finish polished to the highest gloss. Six base coats of medium CA glue were required to fill the very porous end grain.

5 3/4" high x 9 15/16" diam.
9.05 ounces
