Walnut – The unusual shape and clean lines of this straight-grained Black Walnut makes this suitable as either a functional or display piece. The open grain pattern of the wood is enhanced with several applications of oil and wax over polished wood. Size: 8.25″ x 2.5″

 

Tamarind – This heavily spalted southeast Asia wood is remarkable to turn, an even more remarkable in finished form.  Adorned with a beautiful glass globe crafted by an Indiana glass artist, the delicate spalting pattern contrasts against a creamy-white background.  This piece is affectionately titled Antithesis, from the crafting techniques of the wood bowl and glass globe (subtractive and additive mediums).  This bowl measures 6″ x 2″ and is finished in oil and lightly polished.

Redwood – Sensual in its simplicity, the shape emphasizes the strong grain pattern of this redwood specimen.  A pleasure to hold and feel the undulating grain.  Measuring 5.5″ x 3″, finished in oil and wax.
