This is for sure a very nice looking bowl. I love these medium sized serving bowls that have a relatively high volume capacity. This one holds 7 cups to the brim. I tried real hard to get it to a full half gallon but it just was not to be. Simple lines with a slight flare at the base make this elm bowl an eye catcher. The diameter is 9 ½” with a height of 3 ½” and a depth of 2 ½”. You can’t say that the spalting lines in this bowl don’t make it really stand out. The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil/shellac mixture. The mix was just heavy enough with the shellac to give the bowl some sheen. Using this combination gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish. 13Dec17 BLE61 For more info see:
