COMMENTS: The zircote in the upper right was a real standout when the wood was raw and in fact dictated the shape of the bowl because I just HAD to do a vertical side to keep the full effect of the ray flakes on this piece. Unfortunately, they do not show up nearly as well now that the polyurethane has been applied. I'm pleased with the overall pattern of this bowl, especially the design and the boldly contrasting colors in the middle. The wenge on the inner left side looks great and the redheart at the top is also particularly nice.

I ALWAYS POINT OUT ANYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE COMMENTED ON. THESE ARE (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED) THINGS THAT DO NOT DETRACT FROM THE BEAUTY OF THE BOWL, BUT I WANT TO BE SURE I GIVE A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION. SO ... There are a couple of rough spots on the bottom, one that appears to be a void in the Honduras rosewood and the other that appears to be a chipped edge on the wenge and the snakewood on the left side now stands slightly proud of the rim due to wood stress.
