This hand-turned sphere in padouk brings the natural beauty of wood into any home. The sphere is signed by the artist, Phil Hauser, and comes with a tabletop stand. Approximately: 4" in diameter About the Artist, Philip Hauser: Philip Hauser has been a woodturner since 1987. His objective is to emphasize the natural beauty and the imperfections of whole pieces of wood. Mother Nature produces an infinite variety of interesting shapes, colors and contortions, and Philip’s goal is to work with the natural flow to create pleasing pieces of turned wood. He is committed to creating traditionally shaped pieces for everyday use as well as for decoration. He likes to turn local woods including cherry, maple, black walnut, black locust, hickory, as well as some other less known species. In addition, some of his pieces use more exotic imports such as coolibah, red gum, eucalyptus and ebony to name a few. In the last few years he has discovered mesquite, a desert tree with excellent stability, colors and wood grain. To see more by Philip Hauser click HERE
