Primavera Nested Bowl Set by Edward Ducharme

Edward Ducharme and his gorgeous set of
Nested Turned Primavera Bowls :




When we saw these bowls we were just blown away.



They were all turned out of a full log of figured primavera that we brought in about a year ago.



We knew these logs were nice, but we didn't think they would be this nice!

Top to bottom, each bowl is filled with tight figure with colors ranging from deep amber gold to hints of red, orange and even some black spalted streaks

Just great looking stuff!


We have always thought of primavera as a great turning wood and is a great option for both novice and experience turners

We think these bowls speak for themselves in terms of the beauty of the wood-


-easy to turn
-very stable
-glues and stains easily (if thats what your after)
-one of the most non-toxic exotics around
-and its color only gets deeper and richer as it ages.

The list goes on and on-Just a great all around wood for any application ranging from wood turning to cabinets to musical instruments to even solid natural edged table tops!







Here is a shot of the logs when they first came in:


Want to try working with some primavera?
