Heavy Rustic Beech Bowl

£180.00

Glynn always part-turns his bowls while the wood is still wet, as this helps with the drying process. When he returned to finish this particular piece, the wood had shifted and the bowl had taken on an oval shape. Rather than re-turning it, he chose to sand it smooth and oil it, giving it a slightly rougher texture than his usual bowls. This quality enhances its rustic, antique character and makes it a truly unique piece.

    Inspiration and Techniques

    With so much waste and redundancy in the world, wherever possible, Glynn uses wood that has already had one life or has become available through a natural occurrence such as a storm or land clearance. No tree lasts forever and when it is time for it to be felled on safety grounds, he is there to gather whatever pieces he can. Other sources include reclamation yards where old gate posts and furniture can be upcycled into objects of beauty.
