Hi Andy....welcome to the forum.

Let's break this piece down into its elements......

• the form is spot on....its curve just flows and flows
• the foot is small enough to let the curve flow under the base and make the form look as though it is floating
• the raised neck ring gives just enough interest where the flow of the curve terminates
• the finish is admirably clean
• ......and the piece of timber is beautiful.

....what more could we ask for....one hell of a first post!
