Koa Bowl

[Frank Van Atta]

Just a little closed form bowl (4 1/8" Dia.), but thought I'd post it just because I don't see much Koa posted.

Yes, the two pictures are the same bowl; I just turned it 90 degrees to show the remarkable chatoyance Koa exhibits.

That's pretty cool.

[David E Keller]

That's beautiful, Frank. I've got a little chunk of that out in the shop, but I don't think it has the curl that your piece has. Koa is one of the prettiest woods I've ever seen.

[John Keeton]

Frank, that is a beauty! I love the bead accent, and the koa is just striking!

[Bernie Weishapl]

WOW - great looking bowl! Love all that curl and the rich color! Very nice work! Thanks for sharing!

[William Hutchinson]

Very nice turning. Koa is one of my favorite woods. Its hard to photograph the 3D chatoyance and brilliance of this remarkable wood.

[John Hart]

Yup..me too. I would have to say that Koa is my favorite wood. It was, even before I started turning. That's a great little bowl with a pleasing form, Frank.

Nice.:)

Aloha! That is really nice. Koa is such a beautiful wood. Love the shape and the rim. Good job.
