Paperweights / Ornamental Cubes
Hardwoods are mainly deciduous, most softwood trees are conifers.
Yew is technically a softwood but is physically harder than many
species classified as hardwood. Conversely balsa is technically a
hardwood but as we all know is physically very soft!
Hardwoods Facts
Paperweight (081)
Made from Cherry Hardwood, this hollow wooden cube is filled with kiln
dried sand and sealed before it is carved. This paperweight is different and
very tangible. It makes a unique long lasting gift, especially for weddings
and anniversaries and for a special event or achievement. The cube is very
tactile and is just crying out to be held and inspected. People are drawn
towards wood, it is natural, something you see and understand, no clever
hidden technology.
