This is the last of the series of 5 vases that I had roughed out of the wonderful curly maple that a guy from my turning club had given me. Beautiful stuff!

This vase was dyed to match vase #4 as I thought a set might look pretty cool.

Curly Maple vase, 8 3/4" high x 4" diameter x 3/16" thick. Dyed using RIT powdered clothing dye mixed with DNA (denatured alcohol). Has several coats of Minwax gloss wipe-on poly and will get buffed after the finish has cured for at least a week.

As always, your comments, opinions and critiques are welcomed!

Thanks for looking! :wave:
 
looks like you got the color just RIT steve:) the set go well together.. on a different note, how do you get the frame around your pics? looks very professional that way
