Playing around between other projects. About 4x4. Very nice to hold in the palm of your hand.

I'm a sucker for a round bowl. They're not so easy and you've done a really nice job. Personally, I think the inward slanting rim adds to the attraction. Love it.

Thanks, Dean! I’m practicing design on these little ones and will try a larger size one of these days.

John, The calabash is a challenge to make, looks like a simple design, however the bottomless bowl and slightly closed opening compared to the maximum width is not easy to make. This is lovely.
