Plains Cottonwood Serving Bowl (One of One)
Dimensions: Approximately 3¾ inches diameter × 2⅜ inches tall

Hand-turned from Plains Cottonwood (Populus deltoides var. occidentalis), The Cherry Creek was made from wood I gathered along Cherry Creek in Colorado. The piece shows strong contrast between pale sapwood and warmer amber-brown heartwood, with multiple knots and flowing grain that give the compact bowl a distinctive character.

The wide, low form works as a functional serving bowl and can also be used decoratively or as a catch-all.

Finished with Mahoney’s walnut oil followed by a paste wax containing walnut oil, beeswax, and carnauba wax.

Care: Hand wash as needed and dry promptly. Do not soak or place in the dishwasher.
