Walnut and Ceramic Support Spinning Bowl
Our newest ceramic support spinning bowl measures 1 3/4 inches in diameter, and the walnut base is 3 inches in diameter. The walnut base has been adorned by Dave with pyrography (burn etching), and the ceramic bowl, made by Jo, has been glazed a rich baroque gold color. Felt dots on the back keep the wood from scratching other hard surfaces. Additional photos of this support spinning bowl can be found at the item listing in our Etsy shop.
