Winged Pecan Wood Goodie Bowl


You might want to call this bowl cute or even snazzy.  No matter what you might call it the fact that it is a great bowl for goodies is undeniable.  Now your goodies may be M&M’s as in the photos, or pistachios, or some other tasty treat that trips your trigger.  Seeing this bowl is turned from pecan wood it has a sumptuous natural beauty.   The wood was first sealed with two rubbed in coats of food grade walnut oil.  Then it was finished with a walnut oil/shellac mixture that was rubbed in as well.   This gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  The bowl is 6 ¾” long and 4 ½” wide.  The height is 1 ¾” and the depth is 1 ¼”.  The volume measures to about 1 cup.  8Jul18  BLP191  For more info see:

  1. This is another of your bowls which if went wrong could be painful, just because of its shape. You my friend have done an excellent job turning it. Love the colour. I wonder if you could have made the wings a bit thinner. Then again I think it might have been a bit dicey because of the shape. An excellently turned and finished bowl, well done.

  2. Hi Les! It's possible for the wings to be a bit thinner, but at the time it honestly did not occur to me. Duh??? Should have done that. Oh, well. But yeah, the slightest bit of distraction and these can be quite painful to the knuckles or even the whole hand. Glad you like it!!!
