I like the flow of this one George - does it have a foot, or is at "wobbly"
Cheers Dave

I think a small foot like that makes all the difference. Makes it look like it floats

I like the simplicity of this type of bowl as well though it means you have no room for any faults....far harder IMHO to make something this 'simple' than something that is heavily textured or fancy but you obviously have no difficulty. .

Looks great George, I also think the small foot gives it something extra.
I love the finish it shows the natural oak off perfectly.

George, there is nothing wrong with this except, it's very plain for you, no colour, no decoration.
Is this a new direction for you?
