ASH + BRASS

The bringing together of ash and brass,
native timber and foundry metal,
the organic and the considered.

Irish Ash, sourced from Springfield Farm
reimagined and transformed into a sculptural plant stand, that holds something living.

Each piece begins with the tree itself,
its grain a record of soil, season, and time.
Ash is a working wood: honest, open-grained, warm in light.

Anchored with a decorative brass frame.
Solid, warm-toned, and built to age with presence, brass deepends over time rather than diminishes.
Each piece celebrates the contrast between
living material and lasting form.

Created in collaboration with Esther Gerrard and Ed Coveney of Elements of
Action, whose work unites craftsmanship, landscape, and materials.

Join us for a workshop, a wonderful opportunity to get together, learn about local materials and be creative . Kokedama (苔玉), meaning “moss ball” in Japanese, is a plant grown with its roots wrapped in a ball of soil and clay, then covered in living moss instead of being placed in a pot. Originating from Japanese bonsai traditions, it’s both a sculptural object and a living plant.
