Oak bowl with finial lid

[Frederick]

Fully hollowed out to 5mm (ish). This Oak blank had been kicking about for ages so I thought I had better use it and make some space.
The finial is Maple and the lid is some bit of scrap. I think it's all still moving a little but hopefully will settle down. Dare not take any more of the lid.






Cheers

Love your wee bowl and the finial is excellent.

IT's Chesnut ebonising lacquer. I found it to be the best.

Thanks but at first glance that line of products isn't sold here.
One of our club members uses a black leather dye and finishes on top.
