Hand-carved figureheads
These newly carved custom pieces are made just for us and are inspired by vintage artifacts we've seen along the way. 
They're carved of a dense wood called "Suar" wood and if you keep them oiled with linseed or teak oil, they'll retain a beautiful luster.
Our hand carved, artisan made pieces are unique and made one at a time (i.e. not mass produced).  It is rare to find 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. 
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.

Pieces that are available will read "available" under the photo; otherwise that piece has been sold.
As always, please call or email for pricing; our inventory is constantly updating.
