Textured Ash Vessel

£55.00
Only 1 available

Ash grows in alternating bands.

Soft, fast spring wood and dense, slow summer wood. Texturing the outside of this vessel cuts away the softer growth and leaves the hard rings standing proud.

This means the surface you feel is the tree's own growth record.

The rings wrap the form like contour lines, following the shoulder round to a clean, undercut rim.

Inside, it's turned smooth and left pale. Ash dieback is slowly removing this tree from the British landscape. Most of our ash may be gone within a generation. Working it now feels like recording something on its way out.

Ash, finished with tung oil. 15cm across, 8cm tall. One of one.

  • This vessel has been textured with a brass brush and then finished with tung oil. Enhancing both its appearance and protective qualities.

  • When cleaning, I highly recommend that you handwash the bowl. Please do not place it in the dishwasher or submerge it completely in water, as this can cause damage. Taking these precautions will help maintain the bowl's quality and longevity.
