DESCRIPTION
Typically, this particular design is reserved for exceptional pieces that truly highlight the beauty of the grain. However, the Pau Rosa I had in my inventory was incredibly breathtaking, so I made the decision to incorporate this design, and the results speak for themselves.
This is a slapping dream come true. The funky side has a good depth cut away to leave a set of curves. These are cut to a gental perfect smooth point all the way a long each of them. It could be the most elegant way of removing weight possible, but this is still a heavy weight. As the opposite side is dead flat and just as smooth. For those that want the maximum impact area without all the excess baggage. The outside edge is cut to match the curves. Plenty of edge play fun from these. Of course lets not forget with every slight movement the kaleidoscope changes before your eyes.
To begin the process, the boards are sanded down to a high finish before any carving takes place. With over 30 years of experience, I then hand-finish each paddle after carving, meticulously following the grain to achieve the best possible finish. Four coats of food-safe wax are applied and buffed to highlight the intricate details in the grain, resulting in a natural, frictionless finish that is effortless to clean with a damp cloth. I will provide a small tin and instructions on how to keep this heavyweight in top condition for many years to come, as it deserves. Additionally, a cotton bag is included for storage.
