Delightful White Oak Pedestal Bowl


Without any discussion, I think all will look at this bowl and agree that it is delightful!  With the grain patterns that naturally come with White Oak, along with the coloring make this a bowl that will work with pretty much any décor.  You can just picture this bowl sitting on your table full of nuts and other tasty treats.  For it’s size I think with it holding 3 cups is really handy.  The diameter is 7 ¾” with a height of 2 3/4”.  The depth comes to 1 ½”.  After sanding the wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil.  Then it was finished with a mixture of walnut oil and shellac a bit heavy on the shellac.  This bowl is not meant to hold liquids.  It may or may not but just keep in mind that was not the intent of the turner.  One of a kind so don’t snooze on this.  BLWO14  5Oct18

  1. Delightful it`s beautiful, nice shape, grain pattern and colouration make this a very beautiful bowl. The foot of this pedestal bowl flows nicely into the shape of the body and the lip of the bowl is nicely rounded. Well turned and finished I love it.

  2. Thank you, my friend. Glad you like it. I've got literally about 2 tons of this wood still yet to turn. Who knows what will be next? I don't!
