Bradford Pear Natural Edge Bowl

Natural Edge Bradford Pear Bowl

10″ x 4″

Bradford pear may be considered a landscaping failure due to it’s propensity to split and crack as it grows larger- but it makes a wonderful wood for turning. I was pleasantly surprised at the subtle figure in the wood.

Finished with a food safe acrylic, but I would never recommend a natural edge bowl be used for food. The bark would be impossible to clean and would eventually break off.
