I like the bowls withe the colored internal rim, did you figure out the texturing process and the dying process or did you read about it on the internet. If it is on the internet can you send me the website?
Beautiful work

I figured it out myself. The rim was turned with a bead interposing the center bowl and the rim. A power carver with a V bit was used (while on lathe) to carve the texture, turning the bowl using the tool rest as a guide for the carver. The outer and inner sections were masked and the textured areas dyed. Then the piece was returned to give sharp edges where the dye and un-dyed sections met.
