I have been working up to this project for several weeks developing a variety of techniques and processes. I first developed a N-Loop Celtic knot process in 2015.

The wood for this bowl came from a neighbor’s ornamental pear tree that came down in a microburst. The wet wood was heavy and dense – wonderful. I have made several projects from this tree.
