 I really enjoy turning wood.  I find my time on the lathe relaxing.  I look for what God has put into the wood for us to find.  What you will find here are bowls, boxes, plates, platters, dishes and goblets.  It never ceases to amaze me what God reveals in the wood through grain, color and fiber orientation.

    I use the gifts and skills that God has given to me.  I have an idea of the shape I'm going for, but I try to let each piece design itself.  Each piece is unique and reflects the wood's individual character.

    Grain patterns and different wood species will result in different effects.  I like to work with the local hardwood species found in Arizona.  They have spectacular grains and colors.

    All pieces have a finish on them but I prefer a clear type or less pigmented finish.  This lets the wood's natural beauty show through.  Each one is also individually numbered.

    Please have a look around and enjoy yourself!  If you aren't familiar with what an ichthus is, click on the fish above!  Please check back often as new work will be posted as it is completed.

May God bless you,
Tom Tunget

Acacia Candlestick set with Captive Rings  Acacia candlesticks with captive rings
0112, 0113 & 0114
Candlestick Trio in Acacia -with captive rings-
7  1/2", 8  1/2", 9  1/2" tall, x 2", 2  1/4", 2  1/2" wide.
Many elements are happening in this set.  The sticks progress by 1" in height and 1/4" in width than the previous.  All three captive rings are at the same height and when the set is viewed head on and from a distance of about ten inches, from the smallest to the largest, all the design elements line up.  Also each piece is made from a subsequently smaller piece of Acacia as the candlesticks get bigger.
Finished in Lacquer.
Consider trimming all candles to the same height to add another element, or reversing the flow with the tallest candle in the smallest holder!
$ 125 for the set
