Purple Passion

Purple Passion

Maple hollow form with an acrylic finial, 8 to top of finial x 8 diameter x approx. 3/16 thick. Sanded to 400 grit, dyed with RIT purple dye and has several coats of wipe-on poly. The hollow form was finished over a week ago and has since been buffed and given a coat of Renaissance wax.

As always, your comments, opinions and critiques are welcomed!

Thanks for looking!

Steve
The combination of the purple and the non-traditional finial is excellent - well done Steve!
