I love this little bowl / chalice! It is very heavy for it's size weighing in at almost 7 ounces (or 195 grams) yet it is only 3 inches tall and 3 1/8 inches wide at the opening.
It sits on a tiny little base that is only about 1/16 inch tall and 1 inch wide.
The Lignum Vitae wood is a pale yellow color with great figure and several knot areas that have made interesting patterns in the finished piece. The bowl also has a little hole that passes all the way through one side of the bowl that was a natural fissure in the wood.

It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ambient Girl! This was a fun little bowl to turn other than the number of times I had to re-sharpen my tools....Lignum Vitae is really hard!
