7 3/4" Pecan Pedestal Candy/Nut Bowl


This pedestal bowl turned from pecan is just right for smaller tables or even for your desk.  Of course I am presuming that if you have it sitting on your desk full of goodies like M&M’s that you are willing to share them.  Or are you one who enjoys torturing folks with them.  Shame on you.  But you might decide to fill it with pistachios, other nuts or even potpourri.  The uses for a bowl like this are limitless.  It measures 7 ¾” in diameter, 3 ¼” high, and 1 ¾” deep.  The volume measured out to be 3 cups to the brim.  The wood was first sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a mixture of walnut oil and shellac.  This combo gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  9Sep17  BLP162 For more info see:

  1. A lovely turned bowl with a very neat foot. Nice grain structure and colouration. The bowl is of a medium size but big enough to hold a few apples, pears and grapes. Lovely pedestal bowl.

  2. Yep. I think it's perfect as a fruit or nut bowl. I usually put nuts in them more than anything myself. With our weather I have to keep apples (my favorite fruit) in the fridge or they will go bad real fast. I'm figgering this will be a fast seller but you never know.
