​From island tree to bowl...


All the bowls listed here are turned on St Agnes from Scillonian trees and aim to showcase the natural tactile beauty of the wood with all its quirks and individuality, without shiny lacquered finishes. Unless otherwise indicated, they are finished with a food safe mixture of local beeswax and flaxseed oil. 

Being made from a natural product (by a woodturner with much still to learn) they are prone to all sorts of misbehaviours during their lifetimes including cracking, distorting and discolouring. In this, they are rather like ourselves - telling their story through their flaws and transformations.

They are all one-offs, and if the listing says 'out of stock' then I'm afraid you are too late (and I have been slow in de-listing the item). But please contact me to discuss commissions.

CURRENTLY SOLD OUT - thank you to everyone who bought bowls!  I will be making many more in the New Year.
