Little River Epoxy Charcuterie/Cutting Boards
The black cherry (prunus serotina) or É·riʔ in Tuscarora, is one of my favorite trees because of all the gifts it provides for many forms of life. The gift to woodworkers is this beautiful grain that only becomes more defined as time goes on. The É·riʔ used for these boards was non-commercially harvested in the town of South Wales, NY and then kiln dried in Lewiston, NY. Each piece of wood tells a thousand stories with its tree rings that indicate the years of growth here in WNY.
Every time I pour an epoxy river, my mind is always on the mighty and powerful Niagara River. I like to imagine the powerful swirls and unique topographic structure that created this natural wonder then try to capture that in each board. My color selection is unique to how I felt during the time of making each individual board.
This board can be used as a modern furniture piece that can be displayed until use. It is perfect as an authentic and thoughtful gift.
All the materials used are locally sourced and handcrafted. These boards are food grade and ready for use. Do not leave in direct sunlight or place any heating elements on the epoxy.
