Acacia Candlesticks

Acacia candlesticks with captive rings. Finished in laquer. (The one on the right needs more coats)
Respectively, they are 7 1/2, 8 1/2 & 9 1/2"tall.
Widths are 2, 2 1/4 & 2 1/2"
These were an exercise in 'precision turning as art' for me. My own term! What I mean is if you shot a line from the captive rings, perfectly horizontal, out to a point that lined up with the left edge of the tops, then all the design points line up. Try it with a ruler on your monitor.

Looking from in front of the smallest one to the tallest, you only see one!

I had fun! Based on Rude Osolnik's design.
