Winged Bradford Pear Calabash-ish

Turned from a half log, and textured all over with a Dremel and a couple of different bits. I thought it would be fun to do a calabash version of a bowl in a board. The "ish" is for the natural edge. Bradford Pear is probably the best power carving wood I've come across so far. It has a tendency to burn, but with caution this is easily mitigated. 12.5"L x 7"W x 3.25"H and finished with tung oil.
