This simple, yet elegant bowl turned to from a nicely figured piece of Manitoba Maple (Acer negunda), which is also known as Box Elder. The form self is a simple rounded bowl with a cut rim that slopes inward slightly. The simple, elegent form really lets the figure and character of the wood really shine though which includes distinct spalting on one side adds 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.
