We select only the most unusual hardwoods for their color, figure and enduring beauty.  Our exclusive seven step sanding process combined with all natural clear oil and wax finish, creates a satin like finish comparable to polished stone.

It is this unique process combined with this devotion to quality and imagination that is reflected in these one of a kind containers.
