Chestnut bowl
« on: October 28, 2018, 03:16:58 PM »
Todays little effort from the workshop a small chestnut burr, Finished with sander sealer and buffed on a three wheel buffer. Measures 6" X 3 1/4". I had to tidy the top rim up as a piece broke off making it look untidy for a natural edge

C & C welcome

Derek,

a great bowl.

The discolouration as seen in the top and bottom pics look like a storm at sea, shame there is not more of it in the wood, that would have looked amazing.

Don't you just love Chestnut ?  :) Lovely lines to this bowl and I think that the blend of natural edges and finished edges actually works in its favour. Nice one.
