He was already making things out of wood at the age of 6, and he has stayed true to woodworking ever since.
Today, in the village of Prenčov, he mostly makes beds, tables, cutlery stands, wooden spoons, bowls, crosses and candlesticks. His inspiration for the carved candlesticks comes from the local traditional architecture – the carved wooden gables of houses that have survived to this day. Another speciality of his is bowls decorated by burning with electric current, something only skilled craftsmen can really do. What fascinates him most about wooden products is that they can have the same shape, yet the grain is always different, so every single piece is an original. He works with solid Slovak wood as well as exotic timber. You can buy his products on our partner website: https://www.regionalnepulty.sk/vyrobca/mario-bacik/
