Faceted Catalpa Bowl in Blue
One of the things I loved about my home when I came to see the first time was the big, beautiful catalpa tree. It was in bloom at the time and was my mother's favorite. In recent years it's been declining and a friend helped me trim some of the large sprawling branches that threatened to fall on the shop. I made this bowl from some of the wood. I have more material but it wasn't my favorite to turn and carve. It is pretty though with very distinct growth rings and an olive hue. This bowl's a great size and shape for a fruit bowl with the more open. flat design but it can be used for anything. Hot or cold food, salad, popcorn and more!
