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 twin shallow dishes, 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
