Elegant 9 1/4" Pecan Natural Edge Bowl

There is a certain elegance to a natural edged bowl such as this one turned from pecan wood.   Pecan does have a certain natural beauty to it that needs no help.  The bowl measures 9 ¼” at the widest point, 7 ½” at the narrowest.  It is 3 ½” at the highest point, 2” at the lowest, and is 1 ½” deep.  The volume measures 2 cups up to the bark.  The bark was helped to stay in place with clear glue and shellac.  The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil.  Then it was finished with a walnut oil/shellac mixture.  With a combination such as this the bowl receives a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  Though the bowl does hold liquids and does it well, it was more meant for holding nuts, candies, fruits, etc.  31Mar18  NEP32  For more info see:
