Welcome to my woodturning web site
I have been turning
wood in my workshop in Oxford, UK for several years making
a wide range of products, including bowls, platters, candlesticks
and boxes. My work is generally one-off pieces, both functional
and artistic, and covering a wide range of prices, always
with an eye to quality, design and beauty. I
became a Registered
Professional Turner in 2007.
In this site you
can see examples of my work in the on-line gallery. You can
also see information about where these pieces can be bought if they
are in art galleries.
I don't do production
turning eg multiple copies of things like newel posts for staircases;
however, if that is what you are looking for then I know a man (actually
several men!) who can do that sort of thing.

I use both British woods and those
from around the world with increasing attention to ensuring that
I use only sustainably managed sources, increasingly from the immediate
surrounds. Not only does my raw material come from far and wide
but my work also travels. To my knowledge, examples are currently
in Australia, Canada, China, Denmark, Ecuador, France, Germany,
Israel, Italy, Fiji, Thailand, Turkey, Switzerland, UAE and the
USA; I would love to hear of other locations.
The piece of the month for
January 2012 is one of my small bowl series, this one is
in beech.
