About Us
We are located 5.8 acres of heavily forested (Maple, Birch & Pine) mountain side just east of Hope, BC at 66302 Othello Road and right on the way to the world famous Othello Tunnels
Most bowls produced by Whiskeyjack are made using the “Once-Turned” method. Bowls made using this method will slowly change shape over time making it truly unique.
Any small fissures or cracks in our pieces have been restored and all pieces are finished with Tung oil or other food safe finishes.
Any large fissures or cracks may have been restored using epoxy.
We are Sustainable
At Whiskeyjack we practice sustainability in 4 ways.
- We only do selective logging on our property and replant significantly more trees than we harvest.
- We ensure that all wood processed is fully utilized, including scrap wood, cut off and wood shavings.
- We obsess about quality and quality control to ensure the highest levels of customer satisfaction.
- We engage with our customers to hear first hand what is desired and actively seek out feedback and constructive criticism, thus ensuring both customer satisfaction and ongoing product development.
Unique Practices
Applying the principles and techniques of Kintsugi to wood bowl making and wood restoration can create unique, beautiful, and meaningful pieces.
