Description 

A cup crafted from sustainably sourced yew, with a gently rounded, bowl-shaped form resting on a small foot. The wide, open mouth emphasises the soft curvature of the cup. A tea and iron finish creates contrasting monochrome tones across the surface, with subtle drips outlined in darker hues, adding depth and variation, and allowing for the natural grain and pattern of the wood to show through.

About the Artist 

Glenn Dane works in Cambridgeshire, creating vessels and sculptural forms from locally and sustainably sourced wood. Using freshly cut green timber, he allows natural movement and distortion to shape each piece, preserving knots, fissures and grain as traces of growth. Cracks are stitched as acts of care, and surfaces are finished with hand-made dyes and pigments from foraged plants, seeds and earth. The works exist as abstract, three-dimensional landscapes that reimagine the countryside through form and colour.
