Bottom of sapele shallow bowl

sapele shallow bowl. Highly figured wood

bows turned 180 degrees, further showing the figure.

I then made a small shallow bowl from the leftover #Sapele wood. Look at how highly figured this wood is and how it sparkles with the light. The grain looks a lot like quarter sawn sycamore!
