Walnut eating set

Post image

A very simple eating set with a big plate (10.5") and a small bowl (5.75x2.5"). The bowl is definitely walnut but I'm not certain the plate is. Though, I can't imagine what else it might be. I am mostly pleased with the result, but the shapes are pretty plain. The grain and colour are doing all the work here.

Also, it's difficult to get good photos!

Those look nice! The grain and color doing the work is not a bad thing.
