I’m still working through the stash of mulberry bowl blanks that I turned over a year ago.  For this one, I tried NOT to do any kind of embellishment, choosing instead to work on the overall shape of the bowl and let the beauty of the wood come through.

I think I accomplished what I had intended, but now I’m not sure that was a good thing.  As I was taking the picture for the website, I kept thinking “Maybe it needs to have some kind of segmented ring added, or maybe some kind of pattern burnt in the side…  This one may not be fully finished.  If that little voice in my head doesn’t shut up pretty soon, this one may be back on the lathe.
