This simple, yet elegant bowl turned to finished thickness from a piece of green/wet cherry (Prunus serotina) then allowed to dry. During the drying process, it warped and moved to its final shape which has a pleasant organic feel and distinct undulations in the rim, and defiantly not round. The form self is a simple rounded bowl with a cut rim that slopes inward slightly, while a simple ringed foot with several concentric rings demonstrate that the bottom was turned with as much care and attention to detail as the rest of the bowl. The simple, elegent form really lets the figure and character of the wood really shine though as fairly large patches of sapwood remain on the bowl and hints of figure add considerable additional interest. Finished with a food safe, linseed oil and buffed to a warm, pleasant sheen, the appearance and feel of this bowl will only get better with time. This bowl is perfect for snacks, popcorn or fruit and is ready to go to work in your kitchen.
