Excellent hollow form,
With a nice finish!!
The collar seems a tad big
(maybe it is the extra tier),
but that is just my thought.

Nice shape, but I would agree with Gil on the collar, very well done finish

Smooth out the collar and you've got it down. Nice work. 8)

Great job. I like the shape of the hollowform. Great piece of wood and nice job sanding and finishing.

I agree with Gil. Collar seems a bit high and looks out of place on that piece. I think the collar would look better if it was simpler (no tiers). It seems to be competing with the beautiful grain/pattern of the maple.

Still, very nice piece. Display it proudly.

Very nice HF! Big collar, small collar, tall or short, I can never say what's best. But that one looks very nice to me.
