5 inches in diameter and 2.25 inches high, this Eucalyptus bowl has some beautiful grain. I'm not sure the specific variety of Euc I have here. It's from my own back yard which contains four different kinds of Eucalyptus trees. This stuff is really hard once dried. Like Oak. Unfortunately it's also prone to checks and cracks. The grains is various shades of brown, from creamy and warm to darker shades and an almost silvery chatoyance (sp?). Wet sanded with mineral oil up to 320 grit, then burnished with its own shavings.
