Mark Tudose

Meet Mark!

Mark is a wood carver extraordinaire! He learned this traditional Romanian trade from his grandfather. Mark's family are all wood carvers, including his mother and his sisters.

Mark is also an opera singer, like his father, but he decided to focus on wood carving.

Mark came to Sighisoara this year and discovered how much he liked the place and decided to stick around for a bit and hopes to develop a business and a school to train underprivledged kids in Sighisoara how to use a traditional craft to make a living.


Mark keeps telling me- you know- I don't just carve spoons! and I said - I know! But for him, it is "Spoon Season!"

Mark's spoons are representative of different styles from different regions in Romania:
