Mahogany

The following are examples of creation that were made with reclaimed Mahogany.  This Mahogany was originally from the ceiling of an old ship. It then ended up in the basement of an old church. A priest  then sold it to a woman who we acquired it from at an auction. The owner purchased it to have her counter top done with it in her beautiful New York home. The remainder was put into an auction which we actually lost the bid on. Later we went back to pick up a large saw that we had purchased for our business to find that some of the wood that we had bid on had been left behind. The owner offered it to us knowing what we were doing with it & how much we had liked the history behind it. I made her a necklace to thank her which didn’t seem like enough, but more importantly we made a connection and a friendship which is what we love about this business.

Thanks Jane!

The remainder of the Mahogany that we use comes from our friend in North East, Pa. who makes exotic wood Turkey calls. I reclaim that which he discards.

Thanks Rick!
