Handcrafted Woodturning by John Fox – Sligo Woodturner

Discover the timeless craftsmanship of John Fox, a skilled woodturner from Sligo, Ireland. Each piece is created from solid Irish wood, carefully chosen for its natural beauty, grain, and warmth.

John works with large, characterful pieces of wood, turning them into simple, elegant forms — bowls, lamps, and home pieces that celebrate nature’s own design. He doesn’t overwork or decorate the wood; instead, he lets the wood speak for itself, keeping every curve and knot true to the tree it came from.

Each creation is finished with natural oils to bring out the richness of the grain and a soft, warm glow. The result is work that feels honest, organic, and enduring — art that can transform any room with the quiet beauty of real wood.
