This is a 50th Wedding Anniversary gift present, a piece of wall heart art. It's an amazing any occasion loving art gift!! It's flat on the back and is ready to hang on the wall with a metal self leveling hanger. I signed it Wiz on the back.
There is some interesting natural edge on the right lobe and I love the burl grain pattern. The last photo is of me carving in my shop, The Tree Wizard Gallery in Port Orford, Oregon. The second photo is of the original slab this heart was carved out of. It measures 23 1/2" tall x 12" wide x 1 1/2" thick.
I carved this heart out of a piece of Myrtlewood burl that grows in my neck of the woods, in Southern Oregon. It's in the Bay Laurel family. SHIPPING IS INCLUDED IN ALL OF MY CARVINGS!!
Frequently Asked Questions
Care instructions
All of my carvings have a lacquer finish. Dusting with a feather duster or blowing off with a compressor is all that is necessary on the carved trees, fish and carved faces. I use Orange oil on the smooth surfaces. This will perk them up. I would do it as often as you polish your furniture. Once a month would keep them looking great but is not necessary.
When will I get my purchased carving?
I will contact you as soon as I get your order. I will package it that day or the next. I take it to the Post Office the next morning. If I get an order on Friday afternoon, Saturday or Sunday it will be in Monday mornings mail.
How will my carving be shipped?
I use Priority United States postal service mail.
Do you ship outside of the US?
I do ship outside of the US. I need to know the carving that you are interested in and your complete shipping address. I will figure what it costs to ship to your address and make the changes to the listing so that you can make the purchase.
