If you look closely you can see that 3 of the stems are carved with a left spiral and 3 with a right spiral which I think adds to the intrigue of the set. - CLICK TO ENLARGE

This set of 6 wine glasses were turned from cherry with the spiral stems carved from maple. They are rather large and stand at 17 inches tall with the stems being 12 inches. They are finished with tung oil. While the most time consuming part was carving the stems, it was very therapeutic. It was also challenging in that the spirals turn opposite in half of the set.
