Here's a simple Sycamore wood bowl measuring 4 inches in diameter and 2.25 inches high. It's been wet sanded with mineral oil and burnished with its own wood shavings. Sycamore is a nice wood to turn; lovely fine grain. A hard wood but cuts nicely on the lathe. This wood is from a neighbor's tree when it was pruned a couple of years ago. I like the beauty in this simple shape, the quiet dignity of it's humble, unpretentious utility.
