There's a balance to this shape that reminds one how impressive Chris's work really is. At first glance this is a neat little classic, with a graceful cant to the bowl, just the right amount of taper to the shank and stem, and a dark sandblast and silver accent that wouldn't look out of place on a piece from a certain English marque. Yet despite its classical lines this jaunty little number manages to display plenty of personality. With just a little more girth to the waist lending something of an Acorn's profile, and a subtle yet distinct little spur at the heel, the whole shape hums with Chris's unique aesthetic.
