Turned Wooden Bowls
The Turner's Workshop will make bowls to any size or shape, from any variety of wood. This page shows a selection of the most popular shapes that I make and a short description.
The turned wooden bowl has been used for centuries as a functional item from which to eat and to store food produce in. This has changed with the advent of mass produced, cheap pottery plates, bowls, jugs etc.
Today people are once again beginning to appreciate hand crafted items, both for decoration and every day use.
The Turner's Workshop can make bowls in any of these shapes or to your own design, in any size and any type of timber. Please remember that stocks and supplies of timber may vary so do check before ordering. Just click on Price Guide to see the price list.
