 Despite appearances this bowl never went anywhere near a lathe. It was made from wedge shaped pieces I had left over from another job which seemed a waste to throw away. So putting them together in various ways, ( a bit like your average 2 yearold playing with lego) I hit on the idea of cutting out the middle on a band saw , cleaning up and putting them together. Problem was, they weren't all the same wood, so I black polished some and left the figured sycamore as was. Just screws and glue. Although it doesn't look like it from the photo its 12" x 12" x 6"
