I would like to offer free shipping to customers who buy 3 or more bowls.  Since Ebay and Etsy shipping cannot automatically calculate the shipping, here is what to do:
Option 1:  Contact me and let me know you have bought 3 or more bowls and are ready for shipping and I will send you an invoice with free shipping.
Option 2:  Contact me and let me know you have bought 3 or more bowls. Then, you may pay the Ebay or Etsy invoice including the shipping and I will refund your shipping when I mail the bowls.
Ebay refunds will come through Paypal and Etsy refunds from Etsy.
Photos are of the actual piece.
PLEASE! Use a ruler to help you determine its size as the photos do not show that.
Additional photos are those taken around the studio or on site recovery operations.
I have over 5700 comments and 100% positive feedback on eBay.

Great service. I just got my bowls just a few minutes ago and they are fantastic. I wish all kickstarter programs were as efficient as yours!! Again many thanks and looking forward to the next campaign
All bowls safely received across the pond. They are every bit as beautiful as I hoped they would be!
The bowl is stunning. Thank You!!!!!!!
Got my bowl today. Beautiful craftsmanship! Thanks David!
Received the redwood bowl last wednesday and what a pleasant surprise it was. An exquisite piece of craftsmanship.
I received my spalted maple bowl a while back--it's gorgeous! One of my favorite woods.
I've seen a lot of local woodwork bowls, but none as beautiful as this. I think it's really interesting how you turn the wood into something almost completely different. It almost looks like marble. I love how the bowls are both rustic but also so posh. It's fine art!
David - your pieces have soul!
absolutely gorgeous! I'm working on it now for a small sculpture!
Beautiful - I can't stop looking at all of the colors and swirls. So happy with this purchase.
Absolutely gorgeous piece finished to perfection! The natural beauty of the wood is enhanced to the utmost via the superb craftsmanship of David Walsh. Thanks David for another pleasant and seamless transaction.
Gorgeous!!!!!! I have purchased a number of pieces from this shop and it is impossible to choose a favorite. I love them all!
Excellent craftsmanship. As beautiful in person as pictured. Accurately depicted. Arrived quickly and well packaged. Very happy!
