particular sentimental value for me. I've lived in New Haven, the Elm City, for four years now, and love the city dearly. New Haven's elm designation is for the enormous ancient elms that once shaded the city. However, they are all slowly dying as the Dutch Elm disease cripples them. This bowl, and a few others, are turned from a log I rescued from the woodchipper, a reminder of the majestic elms, and of New Haven. |
