Rolled.
Unfinished is the most elegant looking.....
Thanks guys, for the feedback. That is what is helping us refine this into the winner that it will be. The bowls are being shipped to us for evaluation. Looks to me like the rolled edge is a clear favorite and the hammered finish makes it look complete. I have to weigh in too - The Captain preferred the flared edge! I thought it added some visual interest to the design but I was in the minority there. The plan is for us to try out the bowls firsthand and then get an order underway. The thumb rest which has our logo on the outside has been hand done in these prototypes. We are going to have a stamp made for the sake of consistency. We are also going to have a stamp made for the exterior of the bottom of the bowl where our company name will go. The goal is to have our first order ready to sell by October first!

With so many saying how hard it was to choose between Rolled and Flared it might be that we stock both initially and see how the sales go. That gives customers a choice and if sales support it we can stock both. I say let the market dictate what is carried.
