Bronze bowls

The creation of these bowls was essentially an experiment in technique. The original 11 cm diameter bowls would have been beaten from sheet with the handles and bases brazed on. They were very light and delicate. The task here was to see how close Moray could get to the weight and feel of the originals by casting in bronze. He achieved the texture and details but not the weight. At 35 grams they are about twice the weight of the originals.
