Large hollowed burl bowl with a natural bark edge, polished smooth on the inside. The figure is lovely, with swirling bird’s-eye grain in warm amber and red tones, and natural dark voids and cracks running through it, all stable and solid with nothing loose. The outside is left raw with the original bark and burl texture, and there’s a felt pad on the base. Believed to be an Australian eucalypt, though I’m not certain of the exact timber. A great decorative centrepiece.
