“Leaf and Berry Bowl” in Cherry Wood, Item #29651
$300.00
Limited Edition “Leaf and Berry Bowl” with textured background in Cherry Wood. 5 x 5 x 4 inches. Item number 29651.
This piece was made from a recently felled Cherry tree in Northeast Tennessee. Cherry is one of our favorite woods to turn and embellish. Bill cut the wood to size, rounded into a “blank”, then mounted on the lathe and turned a bowl for Tina to hand-decorate. Pear leaves and berry sets were traced onto the bowl and the outline was inscribed with pyrography (burning); the leaves were sealed with lacquer to retain the cherry wood coloring. The background was textured with several pyrography tips to create a tooled leather surface, then colored with acrylic paint. The finish is non-toxic for contents, but it is intended to be a decorative rather than a functional piece. Limited Edition.
