Cup of tea anyone?

[That would work]

Olive wood cup and saucer.

Very thin, so timber has moved a bit since making.

Beautiful work!

Hope you’re not gonna let anyone drink from it? :wink:

Good work on the cup wall thickness, would have been nervous myself of it moving during initial turning let alone after atmosphere conditioning.

Really pretty.

I wish my turning was as refined.

that is amazing =D> I'd never drink out of anything else if I had one

 

[DTR]

Wow! :shock: =D> =D>

Interesting handle as well.
How was it made? Is it just glued on? I suppose it is very fragile with that short grain section, unless it was bent. Cannot tell from the pictures

Thank you for your kind comments.
The handle is carved from one piece and glued on.

Very nice indeed - impressively thin walls!

Really excellent work. Not seen that before, but something to be looked after and perhaps used for the stronger stuff rather than tea.

 

[custard]

Superb work...and a truly gorgeous piece of timber!

beautifully made, love it =D>
