california buckeye, an awesome bowl!! sold |
Yosemite Goat's Bowls are becoming a favorite selection. We are producing more and more each and every week since the bowl curing process is coming full circle. Many of the bowls below will be shown at the Irish Days Craft Fair.
In the last few months we have added a number of bowls to the listings. We continue to make a fair number of bowls each week and those will be available periodically. During the craft fair our goals are to see what is admired and how we can fulfill the wishes of admirers. Then again, it is art work, and we make what the piece of wood gives us as well as what we enjoy making.........I hope you enjoy!!

The bowls we are making are becoming very, very artistic. The Oak Bowls here are nice big solid bowls that are perfect for fruit or even a large salad bowl. The hardest part is being patient enough until they are done moving. Then again that is part of the beauty, if you look really close at the black oak burl you can see the rim is wavy!

Alder with natural edge, I can not take credit for this one,, sold |
Many of these bowls are made by my father Jim. Perhaps I should start his own page ; )
Although I would like to say I took some of the credit because he seems to use all the wood that I bring to the shop. His turning is becoming amazing. My suggestion is you should grab a bowl of his before his prices start to go up. I think they will sell very very quickly once they are available. If you are interested in one, feel free to contact me and we will put an order together or you might even be able to pick one of these lovely bowls here.
The alder bowl to the left was bought instantly over the weekend at Murphys Irish Days where the snow flakes were HUGE!!

This bowl is still available, 9" wide, 8" tall |

Below represents the beginning of Yosemite Goat's Wooden Bowls. At the time we had approximately 6 completed bowls. The tricky part is the 4-6 month waiting period to allow the bowls to cure naturally and without cracking!! The goal is to make excellent pieces of art that are amazing, beautiful and somewhat rare.
The bowls shown below are a few we have made in the shop so far. We have approximately 15 curing in the shed. Stay tuned for more!!
Last of my cruly grained redwood, I love working with amazing woods

This series of Manzanita Bowls and Chalices were an instant hit. They have all sold or been traded. I look forward to making more of them. The hardest part is finding very large manzanita :)
Redwood Bowl/Dish. The last of a three part series that I have made. Each from the same piece of wood, and I am hoping to sell them as a set. The bowl at the top is part of the set.
