How the Water Becomes Wood

The tray is a working chart first, cut to the water's true shoreline.

  1. ChartThe shape comes straight from a bathymetric chart of the water.
  2. CutThe shoreline is laser-cut from birch, exact to the map.
  3. EtchDepths, place names, and points of interest are burned in before the shoreline layer is set on top.
  4. SealA durable acrylic surface locks the map in, so the tray is made to be used, not just admired.

A Cape Cod serving tray in carved birch, 12 by 20 inches: the peninsula's full hook cut to its true shoreline, sealed under a durable acrylic surface and built to carry drinks as well as it carries geography.

The Cape's shape was made for a tray, long, curled, and instantly recognizable from the first glance, and the etched detail rewards the second one: the canal, the bay, the outer beach, the towns in their places. The acrylic surface wipes clean, so it moves between coffee table duty and actual service without ceremony.

It carries oysters credibly, which on the Cape is the whole audition.

The same water in full stacked relief hangs as the Cape Cod 3D chart.
