Color Pencil Maple Platter
This Color Pencil Maple Platter is handmade on a wood lathe.  The Maple wood features a rim of color pencils embedded in clear food safe resin.  The wood exhibits beautiful grain and incredible markings from growth near the center of the tree.  The two oval shapes near the center of the platter are the pith of the tree.  This is where growth begins and age rings are added each year.
Imagine this gorgeous Color Pencil Maple Platter filled with apples and oranges on your kitchen table. This platter is perfect candies or any utilitarian need.  Picture it on your dining room table as a great table centerpiece. It is food safe.
The size is 12 1/2 inch diameter x 2 1/2 inches high.

Care for your Maple Platter
Keep out of direct sunlight and minimize exposure to wide swings in humidity levels
To clean, do not soak with water, if necessary use only a damp cloth
To restore the luster wax lightly with a quality food safe wax or oil and buff.  I like beeswax, walnut oil or mineral oil.
