When you think about it, everybody has a use for a bowl of this size. You might put nuts or candy or change and keys or even potpourri in it. And when you take in the natural color of pecan that this bowl was turned from you can’t help but love it. It holds a whopping 1 cup measured to the brim. The diameter is 5” with a height of 1 ½” and is 1” deep. The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil/shellac mixture. This combination gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish. 18Sep17 BLP169 For more info see:
A very nice small Pecan bowl which has a nice shape. Those dark knots are equally spaced on both sides of the bowls rim. Mother nature is a wonderful thing unless you saw this before you started turning this bowl in which case well done my friend. The base is nicely done as well.
ReplyDeleteHi Les! Actually, I didn't see those knots until I was almost done with the bowl. Mamma Nature likes to share her secrets with us from time to time. All we have to do is be lucky enough to pay attention. Glad you liked it!
