This beautiful Spalted Maple bowl has a green and copper inlay expertly handcrafted by Artisan Mark Hershey for a unique and rustic look. The colors enhance the already beautiful intricate woodgrains in this unique bowl.
Spalted wood is actually wood that has started the rotting process and has a really unique pattern as you can see here. There are black wavy streaks that are eye-catching and add a level of detail to the finished piece. The integrity of the wood on a finished piece like this is not affected in any way by the spalting. It only adds to the beauty!
