A few new spoons

I’ve been trying to re-stock on these now for a while but there never seems to be enough time!

 

These are all priced competitively at £15 each

Most are made of alder (not sure about the pale ones to the right – scratches head slightly embarrassed…)

Beeswax

Cast beeswax blocks back in stock after selling out at TORM. 40g shell £2

Mary Rose feeding spoon

Made for an upcoming project… but there will be some on the stall at the next market in March…

 

Another skittle set…

This set is on it’s way to Scotland. I try to make each set of my skittle men different to the ones I have made before, and make them reflect their destination or buyer. this one has an extra banding round the centre for a kilt/belt line. I also code each set differently which allows me to remake them if more are needed.

Some re-lists and new listings on Etsy

Some lovely new pieces on Etsy… and a few relists, repriced…

Hairpins…

… I hope to be doing more of these. This one, in boxwood, was for a family member.

 

…maybe some in ebony soon… or bone… or both!

Delivered at TORM last weekend

A pair of rather lovely sand timers…

The one on the left is a 30 minute timer, with spalted beech ends capped with leather, and turned boxwood spindles. The one on the right is a 10 minute timer (with a longer glass profile) and is all oak, with split boxwood hoops for protection. Both frames are examples of ones found on board the Mary Rose.

Following an excellent weekend…

… we would like to thank everyone who came to TORM last weekend, and especially all those who stopped to chat over the three days of the market. Whilst Friday was a little up and down, Saturday was manically busy, and even Sunday had brisk trade. See you all again in March next year – if not before!

Penners…

Still adding new stock for TORM…

Here’s a couple of penners waiting for quills…
