Halibut Fish and Chips

Halibut season opened last week. The first halibut of the season landed in the stores last Thursday. And we had our first just simply baked with a bread crumb topping.

Bookmatched Sets

We purchased this wood a couple of years ago  from a northern Vancouver Island bowl turner.  He was selling 20 blocks, sealed in bees wax for 30 years,  all with amazing rare and unique figures.  We weren’t sure what we wanted to make with the blocks then,  but we couldn’t resist, so we bought them…

Round Servers

Long Handled Bread Boards

Hand-crafted from local Vancouver island  Big Leaf Maple. Three  Long Handled Bread boards. Two are long enough for baguettes. Although I am calling these bread boards, they will also make  beautiful serving boards for cheese and charcuterie as well as sushi  and even desserts. All of these boards have beautiful live edges.

Long Handled Boards

Occasionally we have a piece of Maple that lends itself to one of  our Long Handled Serving Boards. One that I posted and sold this week generated requests for three more. Like our other Table Art Boards each of these boards also has our Signature Handle.
