  • In this video I take a piece of spalted Ash and turn a natural edge bowl and add some gold flake to a crack running the length of the piece .. I finished it with Danish oil ..

    This reminds me of Japanese kintsugi where goals is used to repair broken pottery. The gold repair shows and creates a new work of beauty.

      It's part of a concept called wabi-sabi (侘寂). It's about accepting the transient nature of the world and finding the beauty in its imperfections. This channel often embraces wabi-sabi. I think that's why I find it so soothing.

      @@LuinTathren I agree! It's the 'imperfections' in the timber that make it so lovely with the resin.

      I saw that in a video game (Warframe, specifically) that had pots with golden cracks. I had thought such a thing was fiction until now.

      Repairing the cracks with color is called Kintsugi, in the Japanese tradition. It’s absolutely stunning!

    Spalting is any form of wood coloration caused by fungi. It definitely created a beautiful pattern in the Ash wood. The gold epoxy added just the right accenting to the natural wood color. Great Job, as is your stand of excellence, Andy!!

    • @comradewindowsill4253
      @comradewindowsill4253 3 года назад

      when I see wood that has patterning from an infection, something in me cringes a bit. It’s a lovely work of art for sure, but I just imagine some alien digging up a human skeleton one day that had, say, osteoporosis, and going, “ooo! what a nice aesthetic this bone pattern has”. Never thought I’d empathize with a dead tree so viscerally, but there you go

    The wood grain in that piece was quite spectacular, and filling in the crack with the gold flake added just the right accent to the piece. You never cease to amaze me. I admittedly thought that raw piece, when you began, looked a bit dangerous, but you obviously "tamed" it and turned it into yet another collector's item.
