When Storm Eowyn struck in January 2025, it brought down a local oak tree on the Bruern estate that had stood for around 400 years. Some of the wood was saved and has since been used to create a variety of bowls. While many pieces became thick, chunky forms, this particular section called to be turned exceptionally thin. The result is a bowl with elegant proportions and beautiful figuring in the wood.
For those curious about its origin, the what3words location is rejoiced.informs.airship — the exact spot where this magnificent tree once stood.

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.
