This is a silent auction for the benefit of IAP's website. I know they're not fabulous pieces but it's a little something I can do to support our site.
Some of you may remember my request for wood to take with me to the Appalachain Center for Craft for a workshop with Ray Key. Well, Jon Piper and Dario Octaviano sent me wood, I went to the workshop and, as promised, I made a few pretty things. I'm auctioning these three items for sale to the highest bidder. All the funds from the auction will go directly to Jeff, our faithful website administrator. Buyer pays the actual shipping costs from Brentwood, Tennessee to whereever they are by whatever method they choose.
I'll be taking bids by email on the following items and, at Noon on Friday August 1, the auction will end. That's Noon - Nashville, Tennessee time.
Please submit inidivual bids on the item in which you're interested. I guess it's three auctions for one item each, not one auction for three items.
Here's a link to photos from the workshop:

Here's an initial photo and I'll post more as I get them made.
The initial piece is a mahogany plate (or very shallow bowl). The second is a walnut bowl made using Ray Key's techniques. (If you're familiar with his work you know that the foot on this bowl is WAY larger than he likes.) The final piece is a lidded box from California Olive Wood. The plate and bowl are finished with mineral oil and wax (as per Ray Key's instructions). The lidded box is finished with CA. More details (including measurements) will follow:
