I have used the term "marbled" to describe the grain pattern on this bowl, but I'm not absolutely sure it is properly applied. It is a term I haven't used often, because I'm unsure of the correct definition, but the original bowl block was sold to me using that term in the description, by the seller.
I'm using many terms to describe my bowls, and some of these terms are overlapping, while some are seperated by the grain patterns they are intended to describe.
Marbled.....curly.....tiger.....fiddleback.....figured.....highly figured.....flame......
edited to include: quilted, chatoyance, burl, bird peck, and birds eye.
What other terms can be applied in descriptions?
