This section is dedicated to wall hangings. In 2018, I began developing the ideas, designs, and construction of single and multi-turning wall hangings. Now, an entire series of these have been added to my array of bowls at shows. If a price is posted for a wall hanging, it is still available and for sale.

​Each disc consists of a series of curves...convex, concave, and/or ogee. The discs are not 'flat', and are about 1 1/4" thick. By taking a close look at the pictures, you should be able to see the complexity of each's design.


Highly figured Cottonwood discs with Red Box Burl (Australia) inserts and dividers. Any fill in Cottonwood and Red Box Burl are copper colored epoxy. 

​English Walnut, quilted Ambrosia Maple, spalted figured Cottonwood, and figured American Black Walnut discs, with Big Leaf Maple Burl dividers (any fill on discs and dividers are blue epoxy), and leather cord. Can be hung as a square (shown) or in diamond shaped orientation.
