7'2 "Kaleidoscope" Custom Wooden Marquetry Surfboard
About the Item
This is a unique custom surfboard featuring a marquetry deck, designed and hand-crafted by the w o o d p o p studio which specialises in marquetry and inlay work.
The studio prides itself on constantly challenging the limits of where and how marquetry can be applied and to that end they are the first designers to have ever successfully applied a full-scale marquetry artwork to fully-functioning surfboards.
This 7'2 surfboard is a hollow, skin and frame wooden board made out of Balsa sourced from sustainably managed and certified (FSC / PEFC) forests. It features a marquetry deck incorporating a combination of natural and dyed veneers including Oak, American Walnut, Sycamore and Beech amongst others. The surfboard has been glassed using a bio-resin instead of harmful epoxy resins and features a metal leash-plug and vent with a glassed-on wooden fin thereby avoiding any plastic fittings making it an ecologically sound alternative to your standard foam core surfboard.
Each w o o d p o p surfboard is a single edition artwork whilst also boasting some creditable provenance in the surf-world. They are shaped by one of the UK's legendary shaper of wooden boards ensuring optimum performance, should you want to take it off your wall and into the water.
