Here is another freehand Apple in my highlighted brown stain. This piece was completed on October 10th 2010, 10-10-10, and noted on the inspection card. How is that for numbers! I love the blast on this piece! I started with my standard Apple but flattened out the sides a bit and ran a flat down the front and under the bowl. I very comfortable piece and fun to study with that blast! I discovered a superior technique than I have been recently doing for thinning my mouthpieces and I am very happy with the thinness and comfort. I will continue to do this to my mouthpieces. This piece is rusticated then sand blasted which results in a incredibly deep, craggy, almost coral like appearance. The rustication along with the rings from blasting it truly is an interesting finish to admire. Hand cut Ebonite mouthpiece w/Delrin tennon, hand made solid sterling silver fitment.
