Hand carved wooden bangle made from naturally orange African Padouk, by Australian artist Paul McEwan.
The shape was inspired by Antoni Gaudi's use of catenary arches, a very strong structural shape.
Padouk varies in colour from red through to orange, orange being relatively rare. The colour will darken over
time. Padouk is used extensively for carving and is also an important cultural and medicinal species associated
with childbirth and marriages, used mainly by women.
Natural timber colour. No dyes, paints or artificial colourings are used in making our bangles.
Finished in soft, shiny & smooth pure carnauba wax.
Inner diameter is 66 mm ( 2 & 9/16 inches ).
Inner circumference is 203 mm ( 8 & 1/16 inches).
Outer diameter is 135 mm ( 5 & 5/16 inches ).
Width is 50 mm ( 2 inches ) and weight is 184 grams ( 6.5 oz ).
PRICE : $150 AUD plus postage
