This trinket box, made from horse chestnut burl, is meticulously crafted through a process of stabilizing the wood, mixing and molding colorful resin, and turning it on a wood lathe. The stacked design of three boxes, each with a small storage space in its lid, showcases both elegance and practicality. Standing at 150mm or 15cm tall and 75mm or 7.5cm wide, this piece promises user-friendly functionality with a touch of artistry.
Inspiration and Techniques
Jason’s work is inspired by the natural world, particularly space, oceans, and planets. By combining wood and resin, he has developed a technique that mimics the fluidity of painting, where the resin is poured in a way that interacts with the wood to create striking, dynamic designs. This method allows for more creative freedom and enables him to incorporate smaller pieces of wood, giving each piece a unique, layered look. For Jason, woodturning is not just a craft but also a therapeutic practice that helps him cope with pain while expressing his creativity.
