Unique & Gorgeous Pecan Wood Jar

This jar is definitely uniquely shaped.  Straight sides with a nice flare at the base.  What could be better?  Straight sides on the inside, that’s what.  And you have it here with a flat bottom.  Please don’t ask for more on this one because I don’t have a clue as to what else to add.  OK?  All wood was sealed with a food grade walnut oil, taking 2 coats.  Then after sanding it all again it the jar was finished with a walnut oil and shellac mixture.  Using a combination like this gives the jar a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  The base diameter is 7” with the lip diameter being at 6”.  The total height is 5” with the vessel height being 3 ¼”.  The vessel depth is 2 ¼” and the volume came to 4 cups.  Load this jar up with nuts or candies.  I am sure there are all kinds of tasty treats you might come up with.  Or, use it as a jar to hold all kinds of treasures like jewelry.  16Aug19  BXP102

Luscious 8 1/4" Layered Wood Bowl

Luscious?  Oh, yeah!  No doubt about it.  You might even go as far as to say WOW!  This multi-wood bowl is going to be a bowl that someone out there is looking for.  The center layer is bodark (osage orange), then white oak, pecan, cedar elm, and then more pecan on the outside.  The layers after being bonded to each other by wood glue stayed clamped together for 3 days.  This insures a good bond and that it doesn’t come apart while turning or while in use.  The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil/shellac mixture.  This combination gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  The bowl measures 8 ¼” in diameter, 3” high and 2 ¼” deep.  The volume measured at 5 cups to the brim.  Certainly one of a kind so don’t wait too long.  4Aug19  BLLW3

Colorful Cedar Elm Pedestal Bowl

Every time I look at one of my turnings from cedar elm I am amazed at the natural colors of this wood.  Truly remarkable.  This nice bowl is just right for candies, nuts and other tasty treats.  Some folks may decide to have it sitting on a sideboard as a catch all bowl for keys and change.  It does hold a fair amount as the volume came to 3 cups.  That’s a lot of pistachios, mixed nuts, or M&M’s!  The diameter of the bowl is 7” with a height of 4”.  The depth came to 2 ¾”.  There is even a little knot in the bowl, but not to worry.  The bowl does hold water just fine.  The wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then the finishing was done with a walnut oil/shellac mixture.  Using the combination such as that gives the bowl a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  26Jul19  BLCE14

What could be better than a beautiful wood jar turned from pecan wood that is full of pecans?  Probably not much.  This spacious jar holds 3 full cups, and that ain’t bad at all.  Pecan wood has such beautiful colors that come naturally to it there is no need to add anything.  Mamma Nature has taken care of it all.  You might also notice with the catalogue number that this is the 100^th lidded vessel that I have turned from pecan wood.  This does include boxes as well as jars.  The diameter of this jar is 8” and the total height is 5”.  The vessel height is 2 ½” and the depth is 2”.  All wood was sealed with food grade walnut oil and then finished with a walnut oil/shellac mixture.  With a combination like that the jar has a nice hard long lasting natural finish.  The lid is a bit loose in case the wood swells a little due to high humidity environments.  21Jul19  BXP100  $42.50

Spalted Pecan Winged Bowl

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.  19Jul19  BLP219
