Turned Wood Christmas tree ornaments (Set of 6)

Description

Ornaments to ring in the Christmas cheer never looked more adorable! Handcrafted with love, these jolly turned wooden ornaments brought to you by Q Bazaar are a joy to behold! Made from hale wood, they are sturdy and highly durable. The craft of wood turning is hundreds of years old. A skilled artisan fixes a rough-hewn circular block of wood at the head of the traditional lathe machine and hammers it in place by hand. The machine begins whirring as the artisan introduces a hand-held chisel to the block, and applies varying degrees of pressure to sculpt the desired shape and to smoothen the edges. Chips of lac, a natural resin acquired from forests, are bought locally to make the color with which the wooden pieces are coated. By carefully holding the lacquer stick, the surface is coated with practiced circular strokes. The heat ensuing from the lathe in motion gently melts the lacquer stick, dyeing the wood. The lacquer is spread uniformly over the surface with the help of a dried palm leaf. These rural artisans persevere to keep this craft alive despite stiff competition
