Craft in America
Moulthrop Family
Meet three generations of the Moulthrop family of woodturners. Ed Moulthrop, known as the father of modern woodturning, was an architect who found his passion in large-scale turned wood. Like his father, Philip Moulthrop trained as a lawyer, but found greater satisfaction in making uniquely patterned wood bowls. Matt Moulthrop apprenticed with his father and grandfather, continues the tradition.
