Alder Greenwwod Bowl.

I've made a deeper bowl that'll normal. I'm hoping as this is 1/4 split that it won't warp as much as others bowls I turn...

First locking lidded box I've turned in several years... I'm really pleased how it came out. The wood is Italian Alder, which the guys sourced for me.

This will be on display in May when it will be for sale.
