Now I don’t have to tell you that this is a lovely looking bowl turned from elm because you can tell that by looking at it. Right? The subtle natural colors of this wood make it very popular. I think elm gives off kind of a warm feeling. Some it might even make them feel warm and fuzzy. There are some pin hole sized bug holes in this wood that have no effect on the usage of this bowl. It held a ½ gallon of water just fine for measuring the volume. The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil/shellac combination heavy on the shellac. Using a mixture such as this gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish. The bowl measures 10 ½” in diameter, 2 ¾” high and has a depth of 2”. You will find some lines burned into the bottom for decorative purposes. 28Aug17 BLE57 For more info see:
