Cherry Bowl — 11″ — Copper Orbit Edition — One‑of‑One

1 item left

This handcrafted Master Grade Cherry bowl features a quiet, off‑center grain orbit that draws the eye inward, circling through warm reddish‑brown and copper‑toned passages. Individually shaped by artisan Ben Balzer, this 11″ sculptural form blends intimate scale, flowing grain movement, and a gathered profile that feels contemplative and refined.

Cherry — Warm, Copper‑Lit, and Naturally Elegant Cherry is prized for its warm glow, fine texture, and the way its color deepens beautifully over time. In this Copper Orbit Edition, the grain forms a soft, nested oval inside the bowl, creating a natural focal point that feels calm, warm, and quietly expressive. The exterior carries gentle copper‑lit transitions that brighten under directional light.

Figure & Grain Highlights Off‑center grain orbit — nested oval lines that pull the eye inward. Copper‑toned Cherry — warm reddish‑brown glow with natural depth. Gathered interior walls — curved form that shelters the grain. Defined circular foot — grounding the bowl’s rounded silhouette. 10.6″ diameter — intimate display scale. 1.7 lb weight — light, refined presence. Natural beauty marks — small dark accents adding punctuation. This bowl reads like a quiet copper‑lit sculpture — intimate, warm, and visually contemplative.

Artisan Craftsmanship Every Talking Wood Studio bowl is shaped one at a time by artisan Ben Balzer. This piece was refined through progressive hand sanding, cured oils, and the full Beall Buffing System, resulting in a smooth, glowing surface that highlights Cherry’s natural warmth.

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.
