Add this 5 inch Butternut Wood Bowl to your collection! Wood from the Butternut tree, also known as White Walnut, is valued for its attractive grain patterns and light brown color. The bowl measure 5″ in diameter and stands approx. 2.5″ high. A craftsman typically starts with a section of butternut wood that has been properly dried and seasoned. The wood is then carefully shaped and hollowed using a lathe or carving tools. The artisan may use various techniques to enhance the grain patterns and bring out the natural beauty of the wood.
Butternut trees have been effected by a fungal disease called butternut canker, which has lead to a decline in their population. Efforts are being made to conserve and protect the species.
