This bowl measures 6.25 inches in diameter and 3 inches high. The wood is (top to bottom) Walnut rim, Mahogany (dark wood), Ponderosa Pine (light wood), and the base is a different kind of Mahogany (I think. Not sure about this one.) The bowl was, as usual, wet sanded with mineral oil up to 400 grit, then given a coat of boiled linseed oil, then burnished with wood shavings, and finished up with a high speed wax. This almost looks like a basket weave design in the middle section of the sides. I think this might be the best bowl I've turned so far. The wood grain on this looks fantastic in the sun light. Shines like a jewel.
