This one is 16 inches wide by 6.75 inches high, and you can see by the picture it is pink. Most of the sycamore around here is cream colored so this is unusual for this neck of the woods. It has 5 coats of tung oil solution and then buffed, your comments are solicited.

My wife says this is a pretty piece. I agree, not because she said it is pretty but because IT IS PRETTY! Nice work, Glenn.

Great (big) bowl Glenn, nice form and finish:) Looks like it's big enough to hold 2 gallons of ice cream:)

Yep...Mike's wife's got her head together. I love the lip on that monster....and that little wisp of color in the front gives the whole piece some movement. Very very nice!:)
