Own a one-of-a-kind piece of Manchester’s local artistry. This stunning bowl was meticulously handcrafted by Dean Sherman of Sherman’s Creations, a local artisan and long-time Manchester resident known for his deep connection to the land and his skill in woodturning.

9"W x 5.5"H

Born from a rare "burl"—a chaotic, beautiful growth on the trunk of a cherry tree—this bowl showcases the extraordinary complexity of nature. Unlike straight-grain wood, a burl ripples with "eyes," swirls, and shifting colors that seem to move as you turn the piece in your hands.
