Brown Mallee is a Eucalyptus tree that grows in the arid regions of Australia, often sought after for its durable wood. The tree produces burls with yellow to grey sapwood.
This piece features a deep dish, with the organic shape determined by the profile of the burl. High pressure is used to debark the exterior, leaving behind a clean but spiky surface. The egg-like design is achieved by carving with powertools. Then, the bowl is polished to a mirror shine. Finished with carnauba wax.
Material: Brown mallee burl
Dimensions: L 370mm x W 280mm x 73mm
