Candlestick commission

After taking up woodturning a year ago started making for people a candle stick for dining table for friend.  Grain filled with silver wax to highlight the stunning  grain.  Had to use two pieces of oak hence grain in base in different orientation but still a great match. Finished with gloss finishing wax.  
Looks nice! My husband has a lathe and made some candle holders.  Getting the candle recess part seemed to be a challenge - yours looks perfect.

real nice candlestick kev. glad to see you posting,keep it going and jump in the conversations.lots of great people here.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Nice candlestick,  finish looks great also.

Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.

Nice job! I like the use of colored wax as an accent.
