Description 

Turned and hand carved from locally sourced larch, this wide fluted cup features diagonal etchings that run around the surface. Ink and oil tones sit within the carved lines, while small knots and natural variations in the wood remain visible beneath the finish. Warmer wooden tones appear at the centre of the cup, and a short, rounded stand grounds the form.

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.
