I'm still learning how to post pictures so I will say sorry for the multiple posts.
The cherry one is 11 cm high by 9 cm wide with a hollowing out hole of 2 cm and the walnut one is 15 cm high by 11 cm wide. The walnut one is also  spalted on the other side
Your c and c are most welcome. Les

Just shaken off the shavings to pop in and put the kettle on and saw these.

Very nice indeed Les, you certainly have hollowing off to a 'T'.

Thanks for sharing, I very much like the full organic forms. Great finish too.

All of them look great. It always seems mind boggling how the wood is hollowed out through such a small hole!

I really like the 'onion' shape of the walnut one. That must have been tricky to hollow out.

I have learnt the first rule of woodturning.
The internal diameter should never exceed the external width.
Nor the internal depth, the external height.
Does that make me an expert now ?

They give the impression of being bigger than you say, 10cm x 10cm. Probably because you have managed to capture the essence of the spare so well.

And not over finished with shine either. you understand the wood well.
