Medium Cherry Salad Bowl (BW338)
A large Black Cherry tree that had graced a lakeside home in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts had to be taken down, yielding the log for this hefty salad bowl. Its walls are nearly an inch thick, imparting a presence to this bowl reminiscent of colonial times. Being cherry wood, the bowl should darken over time, taking on a wonderful cherry color and patina. This bowl begs to be used.
Finished with Bowlwood mineral oil and beeswax, which can be renewed at any time by applying more mineral oil and/or beeswax.

Tulip Poplar Salad Bowl (BW308)
Occasionally a piece of wood reveals some unexpected features when it's worked. This Red Maple bowl is an example of that kind of surprise; it was streaked with narrow stain lines that, when the wood was hollowed into a bowl, became an interesting splash of speckles.
Maple has long been a traditional wood for bowls, but the streak pattern gives this one a little extra visual impact.
