About this Product
This bowl is made from the root wood of a cherry tree and features an absolute symphony of colors and swirling grain patterns. Cherry wood is prized for its rich orange-brown color, and in root wood this beauty is enriched by the wildly organic mixing of color variations. Further complementing that natural beauty is the asymmetrical shape of this piece. Because I use power-carving techniques rather than turning bowls on a lathe, I'm not constrained to round shapes.
About 10 inches (25 cm) in its longest dimension, 6-3/4 inches (17 cm) wide and 2-1/4 inches (57 mm) high. It's finished with an oil-varnish blend.
This bowl could be used to hold candies, fruit, other food or household items, or kept empty to better display its beauty. It's a showpiece and a stunning example of just how beautiful wood can be.
