Hoeksema Woodworking
This piece is handcrafted from solid hardwoods and finished by hand to highlight the wood’s natural grain, texture, and character. No two pieces are ever the same. I used a light Chaos pattern on this board.
Each piece features natural grain variation, subtle color shifts, and character marks formed over decades of growth. These details are not flaws—they are part of what makes each piece unique.
Designed for everyday use, this piece is built from solid wood and finished to protect the surface without masking its natural beauty. It’s meant to be used, cared for, and enjoyed—not stored away.
Solid wood naturally responds to its environment. With simple care and occasional oiling, your piece will age beautifully and develop even more character over time.
Full care instructions can be found on the Care & Use page.
