Teak Steam-Bent Snare with maple reinforcement rings, beauty!

This is a beautiful 14″x6.5″ Teak 1-ply snare.  The shell was bent by Vaughncraft, one of the best companies for in the world for steam bent shells.  The main wood is Teak, with Maple 1-ply steam bent reinforcement rings.  Finished in a semi-gloss oil base urethane, hand rubbed to a perfectly smooth sheen, and complimented by reproduction Radio King lugs, classic single-flanged hoops and clips, and a modern Dunnett R-class swivel strainer.  A workhorse that’s also a work of art:
