spirit stains

  1. Maple box hand-carved and dyed with black spirit stain

    Maple box hand-carved and dyed with black spirit stain

    Carved with a v-shaped chisel head, then dyed thoroughly with black spirit stain. I didn't know when I finished the inside that I would be coliring the outside, so I waxed the inside, which left a bit of an inconsistent finish.
  2. Decorative Small Bowl

    Decorative Small Bowl

    A small bowl in beech, textured and coloured with spirit stains.
  3. Fluted Vase

    Fluted Vase

    My first fluting efforts - wanted to avoid too much symmetry. Colored with spirit stains applied by airbrush and paper towel. 6 inches tall, just under 3 inches at its widest.
