This came from a log in my neighbor's firewood pile that had "aged" in the hot Mojave Desert sun for several years. It was really dry and had a few cracks to deal with. About 6 1/2" x 2 1/4" with Watco finish. Critiques welcome.........Ron

Ron you have given my favorite native wood a classic design, and a beautiful finish making this a bowl to be proud of.

Very nice bowl Ron! I can only imagine how dry that piece had to be when turning - must be light as a feather! Really good looking wood!

That's a lovely piece, Ron. The simple form really highlights the very nice material.

Ron,
Great work with that cherry. Don't you just love the smell when turning it? Nice form and finish.

When all is said and done--more is usually said than done.
Very nice. Love the figure in the wood.
Yep fire wood bowls are the best and this one is no exception Ron, nice work and the shape is spot on.

I gave the first one I made of this wood to the neighbor that gave the wood. It looks very similar.......Ron
