Ebonized Red Oak Wood Bowl

The history of ebony being used in carved furniture can be traced back to the ancient Egyptians. The ebonizing solution is made from two common products, vinegar and steel wool. The steel wool is soaked overnight in a plastic container filled with vinegar, creating an iron solution. When this solution is applied to the bowl, it reacts immediately turning the red oak into a rich dark color. Ebonizing is a safe, easy way to create beautiful bowls with originality and character.
