Hand turned to create a large bowl with a traditional curvy shape and a thin profile, making this fruit bowl light in the hand and silky smooth to the touch. Featuring a bark inclusion and a lightly warped shape - a result of turning the wood thin whilst wet and allowing it to dry and warp, giving it a natural rustic look . Finished with a food safe hard wax oil to highlight the beauty of the grain and to improve durability. This large bowl measures 22cm wide, 14cm tall, and 13cm deep. Perfect for use as a fruit bowl or as home decor.
 
English ash, locally sourced from well managed sustainable woodlands found in a small village in Devon. Ash is a stunning wood that can come in various different colours, the most commonly used being a nice pale yellow white. Ash typically has a straight grain, but this can vary wildly between different pieces, making it perfect for creating large vessels and bowls - giving it a permanent place in my workshop.
