A horsechestnut Burr bowl 380mm diameter x 80mm deep. The blank was given to me by my good friend Basil. It is finished in citrus oil & buffed with a cactus thorn brush. Don't want a gloss on this one as reflections can hide the nice grain.

Thank you for your kind comments they are much appreciated. The cover photo isn't on a magazine Peter it's on the world of Woodturners website for one day then another piece is picked.
