Looking good, what kind of jointery? How thick of stock? And what is the plant that is in the vase?

Thats 4/4 red oak left over from the kitchen:lol:
I used 1 dowell in each joint, the centers are half lapped, the legs are angled out at 5 deg.
The plant is shikimi (dont ask me what that is in english, I dont know).
The finish is blo and shellac.

OK, that's Illicium anisatum, I often use I. parviflorum in my designs. I love the licorice smell when you crush the leaves. That's a great looking specimen, give your wife my complements.

Neat Earl. I like the "uniqueness" of the design. I don't believe I have seen that before.

Those turned out nicely Earl. I really like the design and how you angled the legs out.
