This is the place for GIANT candlesticks. Give me a call, there are usually some ready and waiting to go their new home
So, we discussed, and we agreed, that the burl would be turned ..
... and here it is .. finally! 6" deep by 10" wide
Before and after; an elm great big 400mm wide bowl with a pippin oak base. Took a while as it is a very dry piece of wood and needed stabalising with resin, hence you can see the splits in the wood. The dark heart is part of the bowl, with a stunning grain. You never know quite what you are going to find when you start turning.

And a collie dog, living in Wales
A ripple oak board, really quite unusual wood, finished with Danish Oil. The ripple is caused by compression in the oak and this is one of my favourite boards, made by me for me!!

My wood art is created from local wood, each unique piece designed by myself (Gill), hand crafted and hand finished (no computer cutting here!). Every candlestick is made from reclaimed wood, some collected while walking the dogs, some pinched from the firewood pile and Powys oak. I also create oak platters and salad bowls, fruit bowls, candelabras, dragons, cheese and bread boards and other wood designs. If you would like a piece creating, please email with your enquiry.
Recent commissions include large mango bowl made from a recycled mango table, an enormous fruit bowl made from old block oak worktop, a 52″ live edge grazing platter, oak drinking cups, football club crests and Welsh dragons. Each piece is unique, hand made and hand finished.
All the wood art is for sale, call or email penllysbach@gmail.com. Don't forget, if you cannot see what you would like I can always make it!
