Turned from a highly figured piece of Black Locust burl, this one-of-a-kind bowl presents a surface full of swirling grain, natural voids and crater-like figuring that give it a lunar feel – the reason it earned the name Harvest Moon. The bowl’s pale golden colouration will deepen beautifully over time as the wood matures, while the natural fissures and dark inclusions are left visible, celebrating the character of the burl rather than hiding it.
Black Locust is an unusually dense and durable hardwood, rarely seen in burl form, and extremely challenging to turn due to its hardness and unpredictable grain – making pieces like this incredibly scarce.
A completely unique piece. Once sold, it cannot be recreated.
Dimensions:
25.5 cm diameter
6 cm tall
Wood: Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) – natural burl
