    Default Rescued hollow form

    After my colouring failure and the colours not being able to be rescued I thought that I would complete the hollow form cut some dimples and stain it black with gold to highlight the dimples.

    Here is the failed colour attempt.



    Anyway C & C welcome on the hopefully successful rescue

    Very nice Derek. A nice flowing form it is good to see that you have put the effort into getting the form right before going on to the decoration.
    Cheers Frank.

    Thank you to everyone the fail was in the way the colour looked on the piece does not show to well in the photo. The only way to cover up was to use the black stain after I had done the dimples.

    Even on a small piece like this I took three breaks from doing them that is where the good lady came into her own making the teas
