    Mesquite Bowl

    An example of a Texas mesquite bowl that has some sap wood showing. The holes and crevices are created naturally by the larvae of the mesquite borer. 10.25" wide x 2.75" tall. Danish oil and buffed. C and C are welcome and appreciated. Thanks!mesquite 2.jpgmesquite 3.jpgwu.jpgwu2.jpgwu3.jpg

    Very Pretty. By far my favorite wood to turn.

    Great looking bowl.

    I live in the Austin area and was wondering if you know of a mesquite source.
