The fire reveals a vibrant, almost mineral texture and intensifies the wood's grain.
The tool marks remain visible and distinct, giving the plate its rhythm and depth.

The irregularity of its edge, the ligatured crack, the matte and satin variations of the surface: everything is assertive, conveyed by a frank and sensitive gesture.

A raw, silent piece, shaped to fit in the palm, yet made to fully exist in space.

Dimensions: 23 x 23 x h8 cm

This hand-carved bowl is shaped from a single piece of elm, then burned to deepen its surface and reveal its grain.
The fire brings out a rich texture—almost stone-like—while tool marks remain visible, giving the bowl rhythm and depth.

Its irregular rim, the stitched crack, the shifting matte and satin tones: everything is embraced, guided by a confident, sensitive hand. See less
