The sapwood is the living cells right under the bark and is typically lighter in color than the heartwood. Most woodworkers do not use the sapwood, but we like the visual interest it adds to our work. We dry the work naturally to an even moisture content so the work is in no way compromised. Many of our bowls also feature sapwood, particularly the larger bowls, maximizing the material as much as possible. |
Sapwood Heartwood Utensils and Bowls
We are very VERY hopeful that late Summer and Fall shows will be a go! We've sent in our applications and fees for 6 shows happening between late July through September, from Omaha, NE to Grand Marais, MN. Crossing our fingers, and check back often to our show schedule for updates! Can't wait? Our online store is open 24/7/365 :)
Going back over our daily messages, our number one asked question is "where are your products made?" We get it. There's SO much imported into the states. We do indeed make everything you see on the website, including crafting our own wood restorative. The majority of our work comes from locally salvaged lumber sourced after storms, tree services, and the town's wood pile. We also use a variety of techniques, power- and hand-tools, but NO CNC machines! We often post works-in-progress videos on our Instagram and Facebook accounts, so follow us to see more about our process!
Some amazing wood came our way at the end of Summer, now formed into giant salad serving bowls! They make great centerpieces too, in contemporary to rustic homes. You can see our selection that is ready to ship here.
 | We are so happy to have a group of beautiful boxelder, apple wood, cherry, walnut, and maple live edge bowls finished and ready to list. Those will slowly roll out over the next month. We also finished a group of salad service sets in walnut AND in cherry. Finished so smooth. What a beautiful gift either would be for someone celebrating an anniversary (not just the 5th!), housewarming, or as a wedding gift. |
