Keith, is there any finish on this? The form on this is simple but very elegant somehow. Looks like the blank has some nice character as well. Nice work. 8)

Nice, clean, simple lines that really show off the wood, Keith. I bet the owner is proud of it.

Rev - It's finished with Lee Valley Tung Oil. It has a very slight shine, not quite satin. Thanks for the compliment.

Mr. Neddow - Thank you. I have long admired your beautiful shapes and have hoped to emulate them. Your comment will help me to continue in that direction.

The guy picked up the bowl tonight and, I am proud to say, was very pleased. So much so that he has asked bowls from Koa, Black Ash Burl, and several other species.
