African Mahogany Segmented Bowl
Dimensions are 8in tall and 10in at the rim
The bowl is African Mahogany with a Purple Heart feature ring at the top and consists of 156 individual segments.
I started this bowl with a 12 segment rings figuring on having more of the grain shown with the larger pieces,
I ended up having to go to 16 segments half way up so it didn't work out the way I wanted.
The diamond pattern at the top that is in Purple Heart didn't quite work out either, but it's a nice bright bowl.
the picture does not show the beauty of African Mahogany, when rotating the segments almost turn off and on with the light.
it's something that has to be seen to appreciate.

This was my second attempt at a segmented bowl and much to my surprise grew bigger than the tooling I had at the time,
I managed to make it work but ended up having to turn it pretty thin to offset my poor glue up.
It worked though, with a larger wall I don't think it would have looked as nice.
The Bowl is finished with a Shellac top coat.
African Black Limba Segmented Bowl

The bowl is African Black Limba with a African Padauk feature rings throughout and consists of 48 individual segments.
My first attempt at a segmented bowl and was made with the left over wood from my first band saw bowl, it worked out but
it did not look like anything spectacular. I call it a chamber pot it has no pizzas but it has some pretty wood,
my wife says it would be a nice candy bowl for someone with kids it's thick and heavy and would be hard to hurt.
The Bowl is finished with Shellac.
