Category: Turnings 2011

Again a platter and dish combo from the same board.

This is a large patter and small bowl cut from the same wood, same are, at different levels fo the board: note the circular grain at the top of each.

It appears that I turn allot of Cherry. Well I probably would turn green cherry all the time if I had an unlimited source. I love the way the wood moves and twists during the drying process. This is a great bowl perfect to use for mxing and serving a salad for 4 or to pile fruit into and place on a table.

This Maple was aged for more than a year prior to turning. It is part of the same tree that the “Sisters” were turned from. The grain patterns and colors just get better and better…to a point.

At times the grain design appears to be wings!

This is an excellent vase that can be used to hold fresh cut flowers (if you are careful) and make a great center display for a table.

Another nice Cherry bowl where the top rim is large and turns back in.

There is an old saying that if it holds water than its a bowl. If it cannot hold water than its art. whatever the case this turned out to be a very nice piece.

This is like the perfect size and shaped bowl for serving nuts.
