A beautiful work of art. I have never hear of Wyche Elm, but your project has peaked my interest into wanting some. It looks hard and soft at the same time. The grains seem to flow as the sun hits it. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Mads,

This was made for a Architectect and his wife.

I was given the order 18 months ago and with the

move I’m a bit backlogged there is another piece

to be made for the garden but that design is fairly complex

The tree was a local dead standing tree that was cut for

safety reasons

There was not much usable timber in the tree about twice

the amount I used and that was from a limb

The wildlife got all the rest fair share I feel

This was the briefest brief that I was ever given

The location of four 3×3 posts in the ground

The builder sunk the posts and I did one site

visit and it fitted like a dream

I dont know if the clients have even seen it yet

as we just went in and sited it then left. :)

Aw wee surprise for them.

They have the Root Ball from another Wyche Elm

intheir front garden that they found as driftwood

So I’m waiting to here from them.
