These are what we call our Home Decor option. That does that mean?. It means that these are not guaranteed to be candle ready. Now that does not mean that they may not. We cannot guarantee that they will be candle ready. Keep that in mind when you buy. We do have the candle-ready bowls and are listed separately as well. Pinholes and knots are common with these home decor bowls. So we took our #1 selling mini dough bowl and we created the rectangular version of it. It is our Sierra Mini Dough Bowl and it is a beauty. It is our original design. NOTE: Please understand that these bowls are natural handmade products and will never be perfect. That is what makes them rustic and beautiful. Tone, smoothness, shape etc, all rustic and never machine-made. Sierra Mini Dough Bowls-Waxed-Home Decor #2 Size- 6 inches wide 9-10 inches long 1.5-2 inches deep
