George, not quite as dramatic as some of your others, the fully opened cone (it has to be to be dry - I'm assuming) looks great at the top but less interesting lower down.
But I'd like to see the reverse effect as one of your boxes, I thing the cone base would make a really wonderful lid effect.
What is amazing is the colour of your casting resin, that is outstanding.Dragonfly

If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

Innovative as always George, I really enjoy your work and this is no exception.
Interesting choice of material, what stands out for me is the rich colour and pattern of the cone. I reckon you could play around with this one in all sorts of configurations.Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working. — Pablo Picasso
