Elm Bowls
Elm Bowls
These elm bowls were turned from a large piece of wood that was given to us by our lovely neighbor Jerry Shaffer. Carefully sanded and finished with Betty’s Board Butter (beeswax & food safe mineral oil). Movement in the wood is considered normal. Clean with a damp cloth. Dry immediately. Re-oil occasionally.
Ripple (photos 1-2): This organic bowl had quite a bit of movement during the drying process, so we filled the minor cracks with resin. Approximately 8.5” - 9” in diameter x 3.5 - 6.5” deep.
Relaxed Oscillation (photos 3-6): This oval bowl movement quite a bit during the drying process. Approximately 7.75” - 8.25” in diameter x 4..25” deep.
Elowen (Photos 7-9): This natural edge elm bowl was turned from a large piece of wood that was given to us by our lovely neighbor Jerry Shaffer. This oval bowl moved quite a bit during the drying process and developed several hairline cracks and one major crack down one side. We decided to fill the minor cracks with resin & sewed the larger one with a leather. Approximately 8.5” - 9” in diameter x 6.5” deep.
