This is a small birch bowl I turned on a pole lathe, and I chip carved the edge. How to value craft? Do we value the skill, or the time? What is the difference between a mass produced bowl and a slow crafted one like this? Let me know your thoughts :)

Hello lovely folks! 🌞 I have 5 spoon carving tool sets for sale, €70 per set!!! If you want to get into spoon carving this is your chance to get a great set for a very small price.
I am selling because I want to limit my spoon carving workshops to 5 people per day (I have 10 sets) DM me! 😊

Cherry cooking spoon (I sure do love cherry wood, it has such a fantastic glow). The handle is filled with chip carving :)

Exactly this, thank you.

Kolrosed teardrop scoop, I believe this one was made from birch wood. I am going to do a lot more kolrosing soon!

Perhaps one of the prettiest chairs I made last year. The seat is hard maple, which I knew was a terrible idea as far as ease of shaping, but the results are wonderful!

A small birch bowl turned on a pole lathe, chip carved and scorched over a flame (the black is permanent now and stainless)
