Rough Giant Bowl A10V92

This Rough Giant Bowl is one of three massive elm objects (A10V92, A10V93, A10V63) from the Vanguard collection, turned from an extraordinary log, currently at 57 cm in diameter. Exhibited as a group at “100 Objects (2025)” and “Station To Station (2025)”, this piece carries a raw, unfinished power – currently marked as ‘work in progress’ to invite evolution, yet with each passing day its conviction grows that it belongs rough and unadorned, standing boldly against time like the ancient trees it came from. Its substantial mass and intentional lack of finish celebrate the wood’s natural scars, checks and textures, creating a monumental sculptural presence that commands respect in any space. It can be customized for its future steward, living as pure art, a geological statement, or a vast vessel for life’s meaningful gatherings.

At Scar & Wonder, work begins with abandoned and reclaimed wood. Each piece is an act of discovery: unpredictability shaping the silhouette, with singular marks – graceful cracks, voids, twists and textures – becoming its character rather than its flaws. Every Scar & Wonder object is one of a kind, finished with natural ancient methods and marked with its own hand-stamped signature. Every piece from the Vanguard collection comes with a unique Book of Origin, documenting its journey from the source of the wood, through the making process, to the final details of its finishing. This book marks the beginning of a new life: a place for you to set your intention as its steward and to inscribe the next chapters of its story. Together, we shape value on multiple levels – sentimental, emotional and financial – choosing depth over disposability, and standing for a world in which longevity and meaning outweigh surface glitter and passing trends.
