Depending on the quality of the bowl customer is wanting, I would use different sources. I get bowls from Kirk & Matz, Saxton Industrial, Creative Gifts International, or Leeber. As far as the bases, I currently produce whatever I need in-house. You could check out the stock bases JDS and Marco offer to see if there is something that works for your customer. If custom is necessary, check out Colorado Heirloom.

Subject: Walnut base and Metal Bowl
Good morning, who are you all using for solid walnut bases and silver or brass bowls? It has been years since I have ordered anything like this. Customer wants a 11" or 12" base, 5-6" tall with a metal bowl on top for a perpetual award.
Any help you fine folks can offer is appreciated.
