What we make it from.
Solid North-American hardwood and archival cotton canvas — chosen for how they take an engraving and how they age. Never veneer, never plastic.
Walnut
Deep chocolate grain that darkens beautifully with age. Our most-loved wood for names and vows.
White Oak
Open, honeyed grain with real character. A warm, mid-tone canvas for maps and coordinates.
Maple
Pale, fine and even — the highest-contrast surface for detailed photo engraving.

Cotton Canvas
Archival giclée on heavyweight cotton, gallery-wrapped over a 1.5-inch pine frame.
−$18 vs. walnut
The finish
Every wood piece is laser-engraved, then hand-sanded smooth and finished with a food-safe penetrating oil that deepens the grain and protects the surface for decades. We use a recessed sawtooth hanger so your piece sits flush against the wall.
Canvas, done properly
Our canvas prints are archival giclée on heavyweight cotton, made with pigment inks rated to resist fading for 75+ years. Each is gallery-wrapped by hand over a 1.5-inch kiln-dried pine frame, with clean folded corners and no staples in sight — ready to hang straight out of the box.
Sourced responsibly
Our walnut, oak and maple come from FSC-certified mills in the American Midwest. We use offcuts and shorts wherever we can, and the sawdust goes to a local farm for animal bedding. Slow is part of the point.
