Large maple platter
Beautiful, unique maple platter. This unusual piece has spectacular figure. The photographs do not do it justice. The grain swirls in many directions, there are fish-eye elements to it, and parts of it have an iridescent glimmer ("chatoyance"). While it can be used as a tray or a fruit dish, it makes a most distinctive center piece. It makes a statement.
At almost 17" x 2", you expect it to weigh more than it does. It feels deceptively lightweight. The sides are straight, the bottom is flat, and there is a small bead on the outside of the rim to aid in holding it.
It is finished with food-safe linseed oil and beeswax.
