A ridgeline,
a skull,
a record of the morning.

The Work

Every piece we make is a landscape for a skull — poured, inked, shaped by hand, and built to a specific trophy.

The studio works in four small series: resin mountain silhouettes, amber-cast wood, traditional burl shields, and a flag-built commission line. Each mount is one-of-one and signed on the reverse. What leaves the bench is intended to be handed down.

Featured pieces

Four series, one bench. A small run of current work.

The Process

Five stages, slow weather, a single piece.

— I

Source

Walnut, oak, and figured burl, milled from within two hours of the shop and air-dried for no less than a year.

— II

Pour

Black or clear resin is hand-poured in thin layers over several days, each one leveled, then cured cold before the next.

— III

Draw

The ridgeline is drawn freehand, cut from hardwood, and set into the face of the pour while it's still workable.

— IV

Ink

Each skull is hand-inked in a pattern drawn to its specific bone. No two are ever alike and none are stenciled.

Four Series

The work lives in four families — each with its own hand.

Commissions

Bring us your skull. We'll build around it.

Every commission begins with a conversation. Send a photograph of the skull and a note about the series that speaks to you — we'll reply within two days.
