Spalted Beech Bowl
« on: June 19, 2016, 07:49:49 PM »
This Bowl is 16" x 3" finished with Chestnut hard wax oil.
This bowl is part payment to a local farmer that I bought a load of Spalted Beech from.
C & C as always

Spotted this on facebook...it really is very noticeable, a fine piece of timber and a great shape to show it off.
