Textured Bowl
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Niall Cahill
Straying from his traditionally smooth, functional pieces, Cahill turned this bowl from ash. To create the burst of color on the top, he used a Sorby texturing tool, scorched the surface, and colored it with Chestnut Spirit Stain, a non-grain-raising dye. Feeling that the piece was still lacking, he gilded the central pot with 24-karat gold leaf. The base of the bowl is finished with Danish oil.
