Description
This 4” X 1 3/4” bowl by Michael Fay is a unique item. It is made of pressed Amber created by using a high-pressure press that creates both heat and the required compression. Unlike this bowl, most Amber bowls are made with small pieces of Amber glued together. Amber is a 275 million-year-old tree resin found on North Sea beaches. Michael Fay and his wife have been supporters of Barnabas since they moved to Amelia Island nine years ago. In addition to being a talented wood artisan, Mike is an author, photographer and editor.
