I don't normally
Thought I would sneak out of the toy section again just to give me a break from my car WIP.
I don't normally do arty but I thought that I would give it a go. Kept the subject matter simple.
Made from ash and oak, the ash is spirit stained purple on the front only and highlighted using gold guilt cream. The finial is a piece of corian.
C & C most welcome
The first picture is nearest to actual colour

Not bad, not bad at all for a toy maker
I reckon you should pursue this one to see where it leads you.

The plain stick of corian is perhaps a LITTLE phallic. But still an interesting piece. Maybe do something slightly more interesting with the stick.
Pant hieroglyphs on it? 
Engraved?

Thank you all for the comments.
I have an idea for another but not just yet as I am back on the car.

The height of it is only 5 1/2" tall. Mind you it would look good
Some one from another forum suggested using it as a trophy for horse shoe throwing game in America never thought of that myself but can certainly see what he meant.
The form itself is an abstract form of the mouth of a lily flower
