Grafert Rice Bowl
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Irene Grafert
Danish turner Irene Grafert let the simplicity of Japanese and Scandinavian designs influence this rice bowl. Grafert got a 3 in. by 5 in. rough-turned bowl blank as part of an American Association of Woodturners project and was asked to finish it for an exhibit, Japanese Bowls: A Western Perspective. She turned the bowl thin so she could later shape it by wetting the wood fibers. Grafert used colored epoxy for the green base and rim. Then the whole piece was spray finished with automobile lacquer.
