Pentagram shaped Larch cone chip bowl

The Larch cones were peeled and mixed with a biobased binder. The surface of the cone chips was sanded down when it was flat inside the mould. Released out of its mould, the binder caused the hardboard base to curve the tips upwards as it dried. The surface was treated with some layers of Shellac to resist moisture.

Design and creation: A.J. Velthuizen.
