A Small Pear Wood Bowl

click on an image to see a larger version of it.
The simple beauty of a well turned bowl. Clean lines, subtle detail. This Pear wood is so nice to work with; hard wood, cuts cleanly, finishes beautifully. This bowl measures 2.75 inches tall and 3.25 inches in diameter. It was wet sanded with mineral oil, then given a coat of  boiled linseed oil. The finish on this feels like satin. I've more of this wood and can't wait to turn more of it.

  
There's a tiny sliver of bark left on the rim at the 4 o'clock position.
