Made by hand, one at a time

Your piece will be carved to match this design as closely as possible. It will not be identical. Wood is a living material and the grain runs differently through every board, so the colour, figure and the way light catches the letters will be particular to yours. Two people who order the same verse receive two different pieces. That is the point of buying something carved rather than printed.

Description

About this piece

Four panels, each cut through by hand. Two carry calligraphy, two carry geometric lattice drawn from traditional Islamic pattern work. Lit from within, the cut-away areas become the light source and throw the pattern across the walls and ceiling.

Use a warm LED bulb or an LED candle rather than an open flame. The glow changes character entirely with the colour of the bulb, and most people prefer the warmest one they can find.

Care

Dust with a dry or barely damp cloth along the grain. Keep out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. Full care guide.

Shipping

Ships from Toronto, tracked, across Canada. For anything further afield, ask us first.

Want this in a different size, wood or finish? Ask about a custom version – we will come back with a sketch and a price before anything is cut.
