This natural edge bowl is made of white oak and is finished with an amber shellac, which gives the bowl an orange glow. In addition it features a wooden half ring, cut from the same tree. My intention for the ring was to " frame " the bowl, much like an artist would frame a painting. To my knowledge, this is a new technique, and I believe that it adds an aura of importance to the bowl.

The Broken Deer Horn Pen
This was quite a project. I started with a piece of deer horn, which I drilled and turned round on my lathe. I then just about destroyed it altogether by breaking it into pieces with a sharp chisel and a hammer. Several of these pieces were then thrown away, and I filled in the gaps with lapis lazuli and sterling silver. The trim on the pen is plated with platinum. The writing tip is ceramic, making it a pleasure to sign your name with.
This one was difficult to give up, but it is now sold and part of a private collection.

Ambrosia Maple Vase - Inlaid With Turquoise
Here is one of my latest pieces. This was a piece of ambosia maple that was salvaged from a fire. Hence the name, "The Phoenix". I inlaid it with turquoise, red coral, and sterling silver.
