Michelle has been woodturning for over 30 years from her workshop in Devon. Her main products are intricate pieces for table legs, stair spindles and newels as well as finials for curtain poles and staircases.

A couple of years ago she found a source of reclaimed Oak retrieved from Plymouth Docklands. The beautifully weathered wood inspired her to create a series of lamp bases. It displayed a beautiful pattern of cracking and colours as it had been submerged in seawater for years. Where the oak had come into contact with iron a chemical reaction had occurred leaving beautiful blue and black markings. Each base is completely unique and results can only be revealed when they are turned.

Please ask at the Gallery for available lampbases. Standard size - £295
