This is a jar with lid in a stile of some Curt Fuller has done recently. The wood came from Jim burr. The main piece was labeled rainbow poplar. The top wasn't marked, but smelled like it could be persimmon , the knob is a piece of holly that I had and dyed it black. 5 1/2 x 4.
Stephen you sure have an eye for art. That a beautiful shape you have produced. Looks like the ultimate pear shape to me. And you had me going with the thin edge till I saw the lid removed. Wow is all I can say, its got looks that make it feel silky smooth and so nice that one would not want to put it down. Very nice.
