Oh, my! Does this bowl have wonderful natural
coloring or not? You just gotta say yes
it does. You take into consideration
what natural colors Mamma Nature put in this wood, then add some great spalting
and you have a true winner. There is
some neat looking knot holes trying to form on the lip that I left for a real
nice rustic appeal. That does not take
away from the bowl’s measured capacity of 6 cups. You may use this bowl with total confidence
as the wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil. After a couple of coats of that the bowl was
finished with a walnut oil/shellac mixture.
This gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish. There is a nice lip for those who like them
for ease in handling. The diameter is
10” with a height of 3 ½” and a depth of 2 ½”.
Great sized bowl with many uses for you to explore. 6Feb19

ReplyDeleteHi Les! Sorry. Had to throw a little Texas humor in there. Glad you liked the bowl. Things are running a bit slow right now with the cold (30'sF) and wet weather right now. Getting some done but not a lot. Take care my friend!
