Straight-Sided Walnut Vintage Salad Bowl

Hand-turned hardwood bowl with a clean cylindrical profile and rich brown walnut grain. The straight sides and flat base make it great for tossing a small salad, serving rolls or fruit, or as a countertop catch-all. The underside shows old faceplate/screw marks typical of studio-turned bowls, nicely made and solid.
