#282 monkey puzzle

A spherical hollow form in Monkey Puzzle turned and hollowed through a small opening in the end grain. In this case there are no knots in the wood but there is interesting natural colouring.

In early 2018 out of the blue I received an email from an English couple living in Manche just to the south of our house in Normandy offering me some wood from the tree they had just cut down in their front garden. The next week we went down to collect it and I was able to gain almost the whole tree. Such a privilege and I have made many other pieces.

Dimensions 21 x 16 cm
