About Tamar Woodturnings

Tamar Woodturnings

From tree to bowl - best quality hardwood preserved in beautiful bowls (Olive Ash shown here)

I have been turning hardwoods in the Tamar Valley on the Devon/Cornwall border for many years.

Cherry, Walnut, Yew, Apple and Ash are my favourite timbers - generally sourced locally but also occasional exotic species if obtainable and of best quality.

Inspired by master turners Richard Raffan , Ray Key and many others - I strive to produce deep, incurving bowls with flowing curves, an even wall thickness and showing figured wood as much as possible

Bowls are finished with plain flush bases and beeswax polished to a satin finish
