Red gum vase.
Hi all, I just had to show you this Red gum vase, the colour and the figure in it is just amazing, hope the photos do it justice. It measures 6 1/2" x 4" high. Cheers Harry.

And nature's not perfect anyway. I don't know, just thinking aloud.

Yum, beautiful grain and finish
Take another look at finish in a week or two, then let us know how it is going, red-gum can suck up the best of finishesNeil____________________________________________Every day presents an opportunity to learn something new

I really like the way red gum polishes up.
