Aside perhaps from the acrylic stem, there's hardly an inch on this freehand briar that could be rightly considered conventional. From wildly undulating plateau on the underside, to a snub of a shank which transitions seamlessly into... the rim? Can that be right? Well, right or wrong, unrestrained sculptural design, or essence of the post-apocalyptic mutant captured in briar, this unusual creation by Randy Wiley certainly knows how to draw a curious glance, and inspire speculative conjecture.
