Vintage heart pine wood platter.  It is getting harder and harder to find the truly old southern pine.  You can tell its age by looking how close the growth lines which are very close together.  Using hand chisels I carved the veins and the handle.   Food Safe.

~I create all my work using a grinder, files, chisels, hand tools and lots and lots of sandpaper.  These tools allow me to create what I see in my mind.  Unlike a lathe, I carve, smooth and style using only my eyes, hands and creativity.  Each piece is unique and one of a kind.  
 
~Each piece comes in its own handmade cotton bag for safe travel, care instructions and a personal note from the artist.
