Timeless Craft from the Lathe

I draw inspiration from great thinkers past and present to create “Words of Wisdom” - functional and artistic wooden pieces including bowls, clocks, and candlesticks featuring quotations that resonate. Working from my garden shed in Oxford, I combine traditional woodturning with pyrography and careful staining. I work with a wide variety of timbers, always striving to reveal the unique beauty and character of each piece. Every design shown on this site is an original. Commissions are welcomed and fully collaborative; I work closely with you to create a personal piece that reflects your own story or inspiration.
