Someones Christmas present perhaps?

Just posted these off to the states. They are purple heart, 9" tall and coated for use.

Turners don't make mistakes, they have design opportunities

Hi Pete....I've been following the thread to these beautiful goblets on the WU site. where I dropped a hint that they'd fit well into my Christmas stocking, so I'm gutted to hear that they've gone west.. ;D.

Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.

Pete,

That's a nice pair of matched goblets, well done for finding a buyer on the other side of the pond (or were they bought to be sent) either way it's always good to have our work make a journey like that.

Les,

We've seen your work -  go make your own, you're more than capable.
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!

Pete, 2 very impressive pieces and you retained the purple, it can be a case of them to look more brown once turned, just 2 rings, it's said normally 3 for eternal love.
