This vase, crafted from a substantial elm burl, presents a unique aesthetic through its off-centre turning on a traditional wood lathe, mirroring the appearance of an ancient artifact. The vase's natural edge suggests a piece rich in history, akin to an Ancient Egyptian Vase recently unearthed.
The vase’s creation was fuelled by a deep passion for history, evident in its meticulous handcrafting process. Specialised woodturning tools were employed to carefully carve the piece, ensuring it offers varied perspectives and a distinctive look from every angle. The handmade vase stands at a commanding height of 23 inches (58 cm) and a width of 17 inches (43 cm), inviting admiration and curiosity about its origins and the craftsmanship behind it.
