Genre
Craft, History


Robin Wood is an internationally respected wood worker specialising in use of local timbers and traditional techniques, but with a distinctive modern twist.

Using a foot-powered lathe, Robin turns stylish but functional bowls and plates. His extensive research into the history of the craft led to publication of the definitive book on the history of the wooden bowl.

Inspired by Scandinavian techniques, Robin runs spoon and bowl carving courses in the Peak District. He also makes individually hand-crafted benches, stiles, bridges and other countryside furniture.
