I originally turned this bowl in 2015 with the naked beads and with a much smaller center.
That unfinished piece has been sitting as a UFO until last week.
Last month the woodturning club I belong to (MSWG) had a demonstration on what I call mosaic illusion embellishing of platters.
This month MSWG club President announced a "President's Bowl Challenge for next meeting on 9/18/2021.
I decided to complete what I call a two·fer.
I enlarged the center of the unfinished bowl and added Basket Illusion embellishing.
(similar to but not the same as mosaic illusion)
6-3/4 inches in diameter / hard maple
The design inspiration came from this Pima basket tray made in 1900-1910.
