Woven Table Runner and Bowl

This lovely bowl was handmade in the Holden Pottery Studio by former Village Potter Julia Nellessen. The bowl is the perfect size for serving at the table and sturdy enough to use for mixing. When not in use, it will look great as a centerpiece for a table or as a fruit bowl.

The table runner, woven by Holden's Craft Cave genius and avid weaver Carolyn Giese, measures 17" x 26" and was woven on a loom similar to the beloved in-village Gjesta loom. These pieces are an ode to the wonderful arts community here at Holden.
