Great form shape and profile.
Wall thickness?
Hollowing must have been an interesting challenge under the rim?

Wall thickness 5 mm but at the end 10 mm. My tools are to big for this vase or the vase is to small. I find the hollowing easy. Getting the right shape of the vase took some time. I use the holling tools from Simon Hope and the woodcut proform tools. For bigger work also a hooktool.
The vase is about 17cm wide.

A very nice vase and very nicely finished. Yew is always a brill wood to turn. Well done Wim, nice turning.

A very nicely turned piece Wim. I like the woodcut perform, it works well.
