Guys Sorry! I forgot some people like details!
The wood is African Mahogany. I picked up 30 BF @ .99 per Ft. (All ends)
It measures 6-1/4 in diameter and 1-3/4 tall. Depth of the bowl is 1-1/4.
It would have been taller but it found the floor when I had it finished the 1st time. So I had to remount and turn out the defect. Needless to say I was pretty mad that I messed it up. Finish on this is Tung Oil. 6 layers. Hand applied and wiped. Next to no sanding on the finish.
I has started with 2 layers glued together but the layers were so different in grain that I parted off the top half and made another bowl out of that.
