Hey guys, This is a canarywood bowl with an overhang on the top. I figured out AFTER turning this one that I'm pretty severely allergic to canarywood so this is a one of a kind.:) Thanks for looking.

Very nice. I do understand about the allergy...I had the same issue with Bubinga.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Robert, the rest of the canarywood was claimed immediately upon word of my imminent demise.:)

Christopher, the allergy showed itself as blisters on my hands, feet (I was wearing shoes) and in my mouth (I did have a dust mask on). The blisters lasted for about a week.

For what it's worth, the canarywood was really nice to turn and sanded and finished easily.
