This wood bowl is made from a piece of Cocobolo a wood from western Mexico. This wood is always full of surprises, you start with a dark wax cover block and as you shape the wood bowl the color just flows out. I really enjoy working with this Central American Rosewood Pictures are an example of the bowl you will receive on purchase. Bowl will be 5" - 6" in diameter. Larger sizes are available.

For Custom celtic cross wall hanging neededBryan was great. very easy to work with. He sent specs and a drawing work up of the project before he got started. I knew we were on the same page and the results exceeded my expectations. The craftsmanship he displays in his work is hard to find anymore. I will absolutely work with Bryan again in the future and I look forward to it.

For Exotic Kingwood Ring/Coin DishI couldn't be more impressed with Mr Nelson's response time, delivery time or the quality of the two ring dishes I received. I hope to work with him again soon.

For Ring And Or Coin Dish Made From Domestic And Exotic WoodsBryan was great to work with. He custom made a coin dish for me. I didn't think something so simple could look so nice. From inception of the project to delivery was less than a week. Bryan kept me informed along the way with pictures of the project. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Bryan again.
