NIGHTJAR STUDIO
Coming from a long line of woodworkers, I taught myself how to use and operate a lathe in 2019 and have been turning ever since. Based on principle, my philosophy has aways been rooted (pun intended) in minimizing waste. I only use naturally felled trees that I’ve picked up around different Chicago neighborhoods. The wood is milled and never sees the inside of an electric or gas-fired kiln. It is naturally air dried years. Inspired by the singularity in wood grains (nature’s fingerprint) each piece has unique design and is almost never duplicated.
