Walnut Heart Platter

Nice grain balance. you Centered the bowl and lined up the rims/grain nicely.

Be careful using that type of display - bark is too fragile to hold up.

It’s a lot more work, but I usually take the bark off the crotch NE bowls.
They can then be displayed in stand or used functionally without worrying about the bark.

thank you for the feedback Al, I really appreciate it. what is your preferred method of displaying pieces like this (assuming the bark is left on)?

On shelf or pedestal.
i want the viewer to be able to see both the curve of the wall and the flame figure in the bowl bottom.
