Flame Maple Bowl — 15″ Master Grade — Sand Storm Flow Edition — One of One

$525.00

This Master Grade Flame Maple bowl features a sweeping Sand Storm Flow pattern — broad waves of flame figure that move across the surface like drifting light. At nearly 15″, it is a wide, elegant form with exceptional movement, luminous highlights, and a refined, sculptural presence. Individually shaped by artisan Ben Balzer, this one‑of‑a‑kind bowl blends clarity, motion, and scale into a premium centerpiece.

Flame Maple — Holographic, Dynamic, and Naturally Radiant Flame Maple is known for its shifting, holographic grain. This piece displays a Sand Storm Flow pattern, where the flame figure sweeps horizontally across the bowl in layered waves, creating a sense of motion and depth. The effect is warm, luminous, and unmistakably premium.

This bowl is exquisite and is a perfect centerpiece on the table as you enter my front door. The craftsmanship is remarkable and highlights the beauty of the grain. Love it!

Bought it as a Christmas gift for my wife. She adores it and is placed where everyone can see it. It has done everything from a decorative piece to candy bowl. Looks great and it's functional. Couldn't be happier with it.
