ROBERT CUTLER BOWLS
Roberts works are not only featured in museums and major collections of woodworking, he also has two pieces selected to be included in the permanent Smithsonian collection of American woodworkers, and another fine bowl in the permanent White House collection.
His proprietary techniques and knowledge of materials, plus his artistic eye and skills in construction, are the envy of any bowl-turner who sees his work. Creating perhaps under two dozen unique one-of-a-kind works of art per year, Robert Cutler is no doubt not only at the top of the Alaska woodworking class, but simply in the front row with the best in America and the world.
To own a Cutler bowl is owning a piece of perfection, but also a piece of Alaska as well, as he uses many native Alaska materials such as birch wood, Alaskan willow, fossil ivory, and moose antler. A single work can have upwards of a thousand component parts, various hardwood, bone, antler, fossil ivory, gold, silver, bronze etc. all painstakingly constructed into a whole that will delight and amaze.
We have represented the Cutler family and Cutler bowls for over 25 years, and they continue to be the premier artists in our gallery at the Russian American Company in Sitka Alaska.
