    wedding bowl

    I've been to a couple of wedding lately. I made this bowl for my pastor. The writing is Hebrew and say "I am my beloved, and my beloved is mine." From Song of Solomon. He always wore a ring on his ring finger to show his commitment to God, as he was 40 and had never been married. I figured a great way to show the "passing of the torch" from God to wife was to make this.

    Maple bowl 12" diameter 4" tall

    Critiques and comments requested. THANKS!!!

    How did you do the inscription? Very cool.

    I think I would have like it better if it was shallower, more like a platter instead of a bowl but that is just my personal preference.

    Nice work.

    Very nice Tyler, I'm a fan of rims and beads. Anything you do from the heart is great! I keep going from pic to pic and I am leaning with Toney with shallow as well with the wide rim. Either way I still give thumbs up and know you'll get smiles.
