Just got around to finishing this up today. Made with china black tubing and NS jet black rod. I was a bit nervous about the chinese black, but the newer stuff is a lot more user friendly than the stock from a few years back that seemed to like to explode. It stands at 13.25 inches.
Oh wow, that's fucking wonderful
Beautiful!
sexy piece of eye candy there... a very elegant piece.
i too like the china black of late. it seems very differnt than even a year ago.
nice work as always mecha
sick dude
Amazing.
Great flow. Sexy
looking good.
You know I'm a fan of your work, beautiful as usual. I like the cut on the spout, nice detail.
Very nice Mecha, great shaping.
Ya, that is cool as hell! The color (or lack thereof) is awesome.
Great photos as always too.
I love it!
very nice. I take it you sandblasted the outside? I like the recent black going around, had some 16mm rod that looked seedy, rough feel, but it worked creamy, no devit, bubbles..nothing, I switched from onyx to jet black myself when going smaller on a larger piece, looks the same as chinese.

From someone that's about to jump on his lampworking tricycle this week, that is just beautiful. Can't imagine ever getting to this stage and very inspiring.
That IS fucking wonderful, isn't it?Quote:

Is this available? pm me if you don't have a buyer yet. I would like this for my collection
I love it!
Fuck yeah Mecha, who said a teapot had to be short and stout?
Wow !
Excelent ,perfectly done.
I too have that black chinese but it feels a bit "stiff" .Sometimes it turns grey.
What kind of flame do you use?

Fricken Sweeet....
ooh those curves. excuse me /fapfapfap
Damn.......... Great work Jesse. Seriously awesome.
Thanks guys!
@Steven. Yes, it is sandblasted with a coat of luster.
@EFS. I am not sure yet, I will let you know.
@Glassmax. Turn up the oxygen and turn down the propane. You have to work it in a pretty oxidizing atmosphere to avoid reduction. This new stuff is a lot more resistant to that, but it can still happen.
YOU are really good at making these.
Thank you for sharing, I hope to see more things you make up here.
Makes me think of genies and wishing for world peace and more wishes...
i wish i was capable of making such uniform shaping. in another couple years i guess
when my ego gets out of check, i can look at this and think
"remember though art mortal"
sweet!
clean! super nice man!
Just melted my first tube of the new black. I love it. Worked very well for me but the tube I got was kinda thin was my only complaint.
You have some serious skills ......Just beautiful!
that sucks.
I hate you :twitch:
(j/k; breathtaking)
elegant!
love it
