These “roughed out” bowls are dried in a kiln for a couple months until dry and then remounted on the lathe for final turning and sanding.\u003c\/span\u003e\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mark Gardner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46738134106365,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0411\/4487\/7221\/files\/Screenshot2025-10-22152845.png?v=1761161435"}],"url":"https:\/\/museum-for-art-in-wood.myshopify.com\/zh\/collections\/bowls\/decorations.oembed","provider":"Museum for Art in Wood","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
