When you see a decorative bowl
shaped like this, there are folks who just gotta have it! Look at the large amount of spalting that
this bowl has. Just amazing when you add
the natural color of the pecan wood.
It’s rustic appearance has a certain wow factor to it. You have some worm holes, little knot holes,
and other natural defects in the wood that make this bowl what it is. The wood took two coats of food grade walnut
oil to seal it. Then the finishing was
done in two stages. First was two coats
of a walnut oil/shellac mixture. Then it
was sanded again to insure the smoothest finish possible. Then the bowl received a generous coat of a
walnut oil based wax. The length of the
bowl is 11” and the width is 7”. The
height is 3 ¼” and the depth is 2 ½”.
The volume measured to be 3 cups.
Using the sealing and finishing materials gives this bowl a good natural
long lasting natural finish.
