White Ash Decorative Bowl

White Ash Decorative Bowl (20”x21”x 2 3/4” high) with Intaglio carved Ash Leafs

Finish – One coat of MinWax oil based Natural Stain & 2 coats of Natural Paste Wax buffed between coats. Ash Leaves have been airbrushed in various fall colours.

Intaglio carving is simply creating reversed images. The ash leaves are carved as a reverse image in the wood which can show a curious aspect of intaglio work. Depending on how the light falls on the surface, the carving may have a trompe l,oiel effect of appearing to protrude from the surface of the wood rather than being recessed into it. It is simply a trick of light.
