Sculpted to bring out the natural flow and grain of the wood, this unusual wall piece is made from locally sourced wood.

Rectangular ash wavy rim bowl, power carved adn sanded with an ebonies base. 

Finished with a thin wax oil.

One of a series of sculptural works pairing antique flashed glass with weathered oak stumps retrieved from a Welsh hillside.  The fern, the birch and the bo all have strong spiritual meanings, and these pieces celebrate life and its vibrancy and the cyclicality of nature.  The glass is mouth-blown in France and Germany and has been acid-etched many times, in order to create the patterns and textures.  The glass has also been gilded, using silver and copper leaf applied by hand.  The oak is as found on the hillside but cleaned back.

This small but exquisite study of a wren is typical of a Martin Duffy sculpture, showcasing his ability to create pieces that invite the observer to engage physically as well as visually with his work.
