    Friedemann Bühler was born in Stuttgart in 1966 and has been working with wood
    since 1996. He opened his studio in Langenburg in 2002.

    Bühler’s turning technique is complex and time-consuming, resulting in stunning
    one-of-a-kind pieces. He selects his wood carefully, preferring wood from the forests
    of Hohenlohe, a region in the northern part of Baden-Württemberg. His pieces are
    usually made of oak and ash.

    After selecting the felled trees, he goes to work in the forest using an axe and a
    chain saw to form rough blanks. The rest is done in the studio where some of the
    blanks are soaked in large water containers, then turned wet and finally dried.
    It can take years before these turnings are completed.

    Bühler uses gouges, chisels and hooks. Sometimes he develops or modifies special
    tools himself. Other tools, such as shell auger bits, are no longer available so
    he has to revert to antique tools.

    All of Bühler 's work has a simple, but perfect flowing line and the surfaces are rough
    and brushed. He uses various finishing techniques such as texturizing, brushing,
    bleaching, staining, varnishing and oiling.

    Bühler's combination of craftsmanship and artistry bring out the unique beauty
    of the wood and result in pieces of timeless elegance, not only pleasing to the eye,
    but also to the touch.
