Handcrafted Wooden Vessels

Using invader species of trees (poplar, cedar, pine and jacaranda), these handcrafted wooden vessels are predominately made using the segmented turning method rather than the traditional “green wood” solid turning technique.

Whilst visiting David’s studio, look around Brenda’s RUNNYMEDE IRIS NURSERY,and view over 200 different colour varieties for sale.

The best time for viewing is spring and early summer, although irises are ideal for planting throughout the year.
