About The Artwork

Red Alder Handmade, one-of-a-kind excellent display piece, or fruit bowl finished w/ food-grade tung oil made by Zach LaPerriere Sitka, Alaska 2018 display measures approximately 12 1/4" X 5" The striking pattern you see in this bowl is commonly known as a tree star. I was super excited to find this pattern in the tree after processing bowl stock for three days solid, because this is a very rare thing to see in an Alaska tree. When I shape a bowl I look for the best way to show the most features in the least space. I then refine the shape to give classic aesthetics. The elevated base and lipped rim on this bowl feel good in the hands and give an elegance on the table. This might just be my favorite kind of bowl, because it’s right on the line between functional piece and display art. It’s your choice: you can choose one or have both. This bowl will serve admirably on the mantel, for favorite items, as a salad or fruit bowl—or perhaps all of these over the course of its lifetime. People will ask to pick up your new bowl, so at worst, you might have to finish the salad or take the fruit out of your bowl. :) As with all of my work, because it is crafted from a single piece of wood, it will last for generations with basic care.

I make wood bowls & vessels to showcase the outstanding old growth forests of Southeast Alaska. In many ways: I am a story teller. Every bowl tells a story of the life and growth of an ancient tree. Because I work in woods that average 100 to 500 years old, I take extra time to shape each bowl to show what is most unique about the tree it came from. All of the wood I work with comes from trees I salvage myself. Because I only salvage dead trees from deep in the forest, it is the forest that makes the first decision about which trees become bowls—not me. That means I search far and wide in the forest for the most exemplary of trees. My work surfs the line between studio art and functional art, between artist and craftsman. My customers often tell me that my bowls are too beautiful to use. While displaying my bowls as art is fine and appreciated: I also believe that art should at least have the capacity to be used to hold special objects. Each bowl is cut with sharp tools, sanded to a high grit, and finished with multiple coats of a blend of 100% food grade tung and citrus oil. All of my bowls are certified certified Made in Alaska. . . .
