Just a simple bowl and it is about 8-1/2" wide and about 4" tall. Turned from a piece of wormy persimmon, sanded just enough to remove tool marks, and then soaked in two heavy coats of antique oil. The worm hole edges are lightly torched and I branded the rim.

Yep, that one you will have to eat your ice cream REAL fast :D

What a beauty, only a turner could look at that wormhole filled chunk of wood and think "WOW, that could be really nice!" :thumb:

Love the hole and edge treatment too. :)
