Default Wine Bottle Stopper
This is a bottle stopper for wine. I tried to get that certain "haughty" look that only the French do so well... To add injury to insult, though, I'm putting him in a bottle of California wine.

Claude,
You may have missed my note in the other thread (New Old Member), but I have accepted your challenge and have started carving Escher's "Waterfall."
I like your wine bottle stopper. What do you use for colors?
