I have just been finishing off some mazers for English Heritage, they are for new displays at Dover Castle. They are turned quite thin from maple and when I oiled them and sat them on the table I noticed the sunlight shining through them as if they were glowing.
The rims have been decorated with engraved patterns in Norman style copied from a contemporary stone archway.




Even freshly created your work has a fabulous sense of History about it!nicola x
Those are beautiful bowls. Reminds me of how translucent bone china is.
oh, robin, they are just breathtaking. The colour makes them look as though they have maple syrup in them. :)henx
Simply gorgeous.
The mazers are beautiful! How is the rim fit? (You can tell I’m an engineer and woodworker. As soon as I acknowledge the beauty of the work, I start wondering how it’s done.)Bob
They are stunning, Robin. Just beautiful.
