Bowls, Burls, Boards, Boxes.
Beautiful.
Australian hardwoods.
All handcrafted.
All my work.

Extended trading hours at The Rocks Markets this weekend. 10am through to 7pm twilight with the Unbound Festival throughout the Rocks/Circular Quay precinct.
I’ve just turned a spectacular Western Red Box burl as an emerging winged bowl. The grain patterns are spectacular and exquisite. Check the video of it being made by clicking on ‘videos’ on the control bar or check my youtube channel.
Every burl is unique, every bowl is unique so definitely a one-off special gift or treasure.
For the every-popular charcuterie boards, I’ll have a fresh batch of Speckled Hens, some more Blackwoods and a new design, Top Hat, which has a heart of Tasmanian Celery Top. Very pretty.
On the broader bowl front, there’s burls, burls and more burls. The last lot went in just one weekend, so you’ll need to get in quick or send me a text.
I’ve also got some turned lidded boxes, and a pretty special Pedestal Bowl from Silky Oak. Photos will be up shortly, and I’ll be sending it out on my Facebook and Instagram feeds.
See you at The Rocks Markets. Head up George St, towards the Bridge, and you’ll see me!
