 | Salt and Pepper Mill Set a la Eli Avisera This set was made as a birthday present and I tried to mimic the technique made famous by Israeli turner Eli Avisera © Kelvin Stuart |
My version of a Stick Vase Jim Lorriman demonstrated his technique for making his stick bowls and vases at one of the guild meetings. I was quite inspired by the items he produced and attempted one myself. It certainly was not as easy as Jim made it look. I was however quite taken with the outcome, particularly the faces that showed up as the turning developed. © Kelvin Stuart |  |
 | Mix and Match Bud Vases Surfing the net for inspiration I came across Derek Andrew's Triplet Series and I was intrigued by the "how did he do that" aspect and decided to do a bit of experimenting myself. This was the result © Kelvin Stuart |
Fruit Cherry Bowl When I had to take down a diseased fruit cherry tree in my garden I salvaged as much of the wood as I could. This bowl came out of a triple crotch section of the tree. The one area was full of bark inclusions, resinous gum and voids but adds a natural "design feature". The bowl is one of those you either love it or hate it things. © Kelvin Stuart |  |
 | Celtic Salt & Pepper Mill Set This set, made from Maple and Cherry, was a gift to someone with way back Irish roots. © Kelvin Stuart |
Celtic Knot Fun A special request for a 12inch tall salt and pepper mill set came in when I was trying various Celtic knot combinations. I put what I was trying to use in this set. © Kelvin Stuart |  |
