It sounds like I made all of these recent posts this weekend. It really took me several weeks to do the 6 pieces I finished this weekend. I just happened to get them done this last weekend! This is dunno burl for the base, White Tail deer antler and maple burl. The bowl (nest) is 7" in diameter and about 2" tall and about 1/4" thick. Over all the piece measures 13" at it's widest and about 9" tall. Your comments are once again requested and appreciated.

Thanks, Ken

now that is a great bowl, nice presentation as well. Keeping all the bark is never easy, looks like you succeeded.

Very well executed Ken. From start to finish, even the photography is excellent. WOW:eek::)

Agree with everyone's response that this is a beaut. It really draws you in to look at every facet of the piece. I think it is probably easy to get something 'too busy' with several elements, but this works in my opinion.
Nice, very very nice.
Now...how much will you take for it? ;)
