The heartwood is very durable, as it is not affected by fungi, dry-wood borers or termites. The wood was turned on a lathe to create the unique, beautiful bowl and then finished with shellac and hand-polished with four coats of black bison clear polish to bring about the beautiful shiny look and smooth feel. The bowl has natural patterns. The pictures are of the actual item for sale… approximately 19 cm in diameter and 5 cm in height and 562 g in weight (a thick and heavy quality product).
