This Small Oregon Myrtlewood Bowl is the perfect "gateway" bowl. Just the right size for candy, keys, or your morning cereal, and the small size makes the price quite affordable - just $20.00.Oregon Myrtlewood, also called California Laurelwood, is a hardwood with a wide variety of colors depending on the minerals in the soil where it is grown - from light tan to dark brown, olives and reds, and blacks from spalting as in the bowl shown. It is noted as one of the world's most beautiful woods. This bowl, and all my bowls, are finished with mineral oil and beeswax - the mineral oil brings out the natural colors, and the beeswax protects the wood and adds a satin sheen. It is food safe, washable, and ready to use.
For any open-formed bowl, multiply the height times the diameter, and add to this the price of the raw wood 'blank' and that's your price.
