Prospect Beech #5
This bowl was handcrafted from a massive Canadian Beech tree (Fagus grandifolia) that once stood between Ingalls Rink and Pauli Murray College on the corner of Prospect and Sachem Street. With its striking dark red leaves, the tree was a notable presence on campus for nearly 100 years on campus. It suffered stress during the construction of the new residential colleges between 2014 and 2017, and despite efforts to preserve and strengthen it, the tree eventually died and was removed in 2023.
This bowl measures 7 3/4” wide and 4 1/2” tall. It is bowl #5 of the 60 bowls to be turned from this tree.
