This wooden ship is made of American black walnut. Native to the west coast and ca (where this piece was obtained), it is dense and beautiful hardwood. The segmenting allows a huge flexibility in the size of the ship that many layers are used and each layer is made of many parts that are precisely cut to form a ring of the appropriate size that the design requires. In this case, the vessel measures about 5 1/4" height x 8 1/4" width with a figurative bottom and segments oriented in a offset but homogeneous brick pattern to highlight the grain and give a subtle but beautiful variety of perspectives when seen at different angles from inside or outside. The finish is a penetrating Danish oil that is rubbed by hand and polished with a natural blend of carnuba and beeswax with a satin chandelier that defends itself against changes in humidity, as well as resist fingerprints and push dust. It can be cleaned with a polishing cloth and waxed as desired. The transformed vessels of all kinds, shapes and sizes are my art that I have sold to customers around the world.

In addition, I design and build a wide variety of custom furniture, caswork, and articles in mixed mode from my twist shop, mainly by reference, but take advantage of inquiries.
