Very nice work. Great detail carving on the leaves. Shouldn't it be called a "Marley Twist" instead of barley twist? I can see many hours in this piece. Very cool!

Wowzers! Beautiful piece. I don't even want to think about trying to carve on a piece that delicate. Excellent job on nesting the goblet bowl into the leaves.

Very nice Larry, the carved leaves at the top are a definite added bonus. Pretty clean work on the spiral too. Smile

Thank you for all the nice comments. My daughter wants me to make these for her wedding. I said OK, as long as it isn't any time soon...
