Thank you very much for nice words from all of you.

Michael, now the bowl do not hold water, but I have a Vase in the same technique that hold water.

Soth, yes I have designed the pattern in a software called Woodturner Studio.

Oooer! I really like this one. Nicely done!

I think it might've looked better if the sides were fuller, more rounded and less conical. A "pregnant curve" if you know what I mean?

Still, I'm only nit-picking... jealousy's a terrible thing, eh? :;
