Spacious Pecan Serving Bowl


This is one of those bowls that just come around every once in a while.  Not overly large in diameter yet it does hold a fair amount as the volume measures at ¾ of a gallon.  That is a lot of salad, smashed spuds, veggies and whatever else you decide to use this bowl for.  The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil based wax.  The bowl received two coats of both.  This combination gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  The diameter is 10 ¾” with a height of 4” and a depth of 3 ¼”.  The bowl weighs 2 ½ pounds.  With the wood being pecan, I don’t think anyone could dispute the beauty of the wood.  There is a small area on the outside that is a bit rough that would not sand out.  But, this also gives the bowl a nice rustic appeal.  Also using the sealers and finishes you may still feel the grain of the wood.  15Dec17  BLP174   For more info see:
