Bowl From Everest

This bowl was created from the bottom of an aluminum oxygen cylinder recovered from Mount Everest, Nepal. It has a Birds-eye Maple lid with African Blackwood finial. It is part of an environmental project to support and promote the clean-up of the top of the world.

Hi Jeff,
This is a great idea and project. I read somewhere that there are thousands of these cylinders on lots of mountains around the world.
How would someone get involved in this. Is there a web site with info ? Jim
