Silver Fern Leaf Bowl

So yes what exactly can you do with some scrap 6mm thick 316 stainless steel?

I used to run a small market stall at various markets and the reason for making this piece is because of the number of tourists from NZ that usually turned up.  It should be no surprise that this sold very quickly.  Nice little earner too.

The design is obviously the New Zealand silver fern and the patternation is a process that I developed myself.  The stainless steel is fully and indelibly etched by this process.

The base was a scrap piece of Swamp Mahogany timber that has a velvet base.

As with most of my posts this one shows off my truly awesome photography skills.
