Customer Robert Trujillo dropped by the shop to show us his Parota mantle that is nearly complete.
So far we think the piece looks amazing and we can't wait to see the finished project after it has been installed.
Robert used basic box construction to create the mantle out of 4/4 Parota Lumber and will be using a clear finish once it is done.
The neat thing about Robert bringing by his parota mantle is that it coincided with another customer Richard Howell showing us one of his carved wood mantles the same day.
Richard is an amazing artist who specializes in 3D and bas relief carvings and always drops by to show us his latest projects.
Recently Robert has begun to concentrate on home decor and has been producing intricately designed fireplace mantles and carved bases/legs for tables (see image below for an example of one of his creative coffee table bases).
Since we know many clients are always on the look out for neat table bases to match up with the large natural edged slabs they purchase from us, we have asked Robert to carve a sample piece that we will have permanently on display here at the shop.
Look out for a update once he has delivered it, we are sure it will look amazing.
