This is from the same tree as my previous Black Oak calabash, but it is not spalted. I really like the contrast between the sapwood and heartwood. Turned green and finished with Tried & True OWF. Fully round bottom, 9.5”d x 4.5”h.
You nailed this one. Well done. A lot of people have a hard time making the round bottom. It is either too pointy or too flat. You also nailed the apex, the widest point of the calabash.
