- Figureheads (& other carvings) -

Inspired by historic pieces or just good design: we present our solid wood, new production hand-carved figureheads and sea life carvings.

Our hand carved, artisan made pieces are unique and made one at a time (i.e. not mass produced).  It is rare to have two pieces exactly the same and it is common to find blemishes. 
Suar wood is carved when wet - this means that checking (non structural cracks in the surface of the wood) is common and may continue as a piece is moved from a location with high humidity (where we are located) to one of low humidity. 
Albesia wood is lightweight, checks easily and absorbs - does not resist - moisture.
These carvings are inspired by pieces that are weathered and worn and should not be expected to be a piece of perfection but a piece of handcrafted art, including distressed finishes.  Not intended for marine or exterior use.
