Woodturning
Eric has recently been elected to the distinguished and honorary position as President of the Norfolk Craft Guild as a result of his long-term and exemplary service – he is currently also the longest-serving Guild member today.
Eric is a master woodturner, renowned for his exceptional craftsmanship and decades of experience at the lathe. From elegant bowls and decorative boxes to beautifully balanced lamps, vases, and finely turned wooden apple pen holders, his work showcases both technical precision and artistic sensitivity.
With a deep understanding of wood’s natural beauty and character, Eric transforms each piece into something truly special. His bowls and lamps, in particular, are highly sought after—not only for their form and function but for the flawless quality of their finish. Many visitors are astonished to learn they are created through woodturning, such is the level of his skill, attention to detail, and mastery of technique.
Every item is crafted with care and respect for the material, often highlighting the grain, colour, and unique features of each piece of wood. Whether working with native hardwoods or carefully selected exotic timbers, he brings out the best in each, creating pieces that are as beautiful to touch as they are to behold.
Dedicated to his craft, Eric continues to inspire and impress with work that reflects a lifetime of learning, patience, and an unwavering commitment to woodturning excellence.
