multi axis tea pot and cups

These were turned entirely between centers. Very unusual for me, as I have primarily worked on multi axis spindles.
Hello Barbara
Superb.
I need more information.
Turned between centers you say... but what about hollowing ?
And what about the ears of the two nice teacups ?
I suppose teapot is hollowed and the upper part is the cap ?
Which wood ?
Love very much this set, many thanks for sharing
friendly, Lionel.
 
Barbara,
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This teapot is amazing! I suggest that you send an image to Binh Pho and ask him if he thinks Sonny Cam might be interested in buying it (assuming you want to sell it?). It really is delightful!
 
Thank you for your comments. This is Holly. There are many centers and many orientations. It is hollowed (as much as a square can be hollowed) between centers. You are right...the top is the cap. Each piece has a handle. The handles are also turned (and sanded a bit for some of the shaping).
