English Walnut Vessel Trio

This group of forms was turned from English walnut logs that had large sapwood areas. I like the look of the individual pieces, but I think they look better as a family. In the U.S., English walnut trees are grown as ornamentals and for commercial nut production.

Finished with oil and buffed to a gloss finish.
All comments are welcome.

Hi Andy you are right they look fabulous as a trio! The timber is very attractive to the sap wood is a great contrast to the darker heart. I particularly like the way the feet make it look like they are almost floating. Great stuff

Hi Andy.
I was talking to Mark Sanger about 30 minuts ago and he said look at your hollow forms for inspiration .I can see what he meant these are very nice.
A nice set.

They are lovely as usual Andy.

Your forms always inspire me. they are so beautiful. They have recently inspired me to start to make taller forms. Once I have finished them I will post.

take care

Mark
