This piece is exquisite! It's definitely on of my favorite of your pieces. Is it finished? If not, can't wait.

Almost, I just have to add the slumped glass inset for the head of the flower.My friend Barbara Arindell who does the glasswork really out did herself this time. The pieces are really chunky and vibrant.I'll post the final product next week. Thanks again. Janet R.
(oh, by the way can't wait to see what you are up to next!)

Very nice. I like leaves curling around the stem and the finish is great.

Hi Janet,
This is a one of your best pieces. The patina is nice, I see why you like this coloration so much; but the way those leaf stems move with Fibonacci like grace, it looks perfecto.Ya done real good.

Janet the piece has a nice flow to it, very organic but yet stylish. Nice shape of the leaves.

(curious why are the pics so small, usually can post a thumb nail and blow up three times that size????)

Just realised what was different about this piece, why I like it so much. I didn't notice the welds on this one. Very nice blending job. Seems to make a big difference.

Hi Rick,
No it's welded and cleaned and welded and cleaned again. I actually couldn't bend that stock in my bender 1"
solid round , so I bought scrolls from King Arch. and cut them up and rearranged them to make my shapes!!! That's why I need to buy a forge....That's definitely our next pruchase. janet R.
