hand turned wooden platter -birds eye
Hand turned wooden serving platter.
This piece is ideal as serving party food, fine drink ware tray, or cheese board.
Also stunning when displayed on the wall.
The greatest feature of this piece is gorgeous birds-eye figure that appeared all over on the maple wood, both front and the back.
The beautiful charcoal colour comes from steel and vinegar dye. It changes its shade and depth at an angle, showing the unique qualities of the grain and curvature of the wood.
Treated with liquid glass, which not only makes it food safe and free from oil stains, but also that it will retain its colour for many years and is maintenance free, water resistant and unlikely to decay. ( Read a blog article about liquid glass)
