September. An Oriental rice bowl and chopsticks.
The first question will probably be - what's the difference between a rice bowl and any other bowl?
answer: a rice bowl looks like a rice bowl. :roll:
do an image search and whilst there are a thousand and one shapes they mostly have a similar shape. Also I believe that a rice bowl will usually be held in one hand whilst chop-sticking with the other. Apologies if I am incorrect.
Usual rules:
Open to anyone and everyone.
New work only please.
To be made on the lathe using wood turning tools.
no minimum or maximum size.
Can be made of multiple woods if desired
Decoration, colouring, texturing is allowed, but again remember its about the turning :wink:
The bowl does not need to have a food safe finish unless it will be used for food.
Please post 3 or 4 images of your work along with a brief note about how you made it, what tools and finish you used, what wood (if known) and the objects dimensions etc.
