Ed, they are all very beautiful and the picture is very nicely set up, nice photo.

Five great pieces and a really nice arrangement. I'm curious what criteria you applied to chose which ones to oil and wax, and which ones to use lacquer.

Thank you Bob and Chuck.

Chuck. I chose the two to be lacquered because they had more white wood which I wanted to preserve. The oil tends to darken everything somewhat. I also saw the opportunity to show the difference in finishes within a group photo.

Be well,
Ed
