About Wood & Wood Types: Crucifixes, Crosses
Handcrafted
We make a variety of styles and sizes. What we make depends on the types of available wood.
What Makes Them Unique
Since wood has different grain patterns and shades, each piece is unique. As a result, two Crucifixes made from the same tree can look different from one another.
Natural Tones
We preserve the natural tones of the wood to let its uniqueness show through. Every board is unique in some way. Each type of wood ages differently. We listed typical traits of each type of wood to give you an idea of what it might look like.

CREDITS
The LOGO image of Our Lady of Grace is original artwork by Martin Lariviere in 2009. We have the artist’s permission (my son). It is our exclusive trademark logo image.
A beautifully photographed sky by Donald Tong inspired the website’s colour scheme. Cropped portions of it are the background for the footer Bible verse. He shared it as a free download on pexels.com.
Raphael painted The Sistine Madonna circa (1513-1514). We made circular cut-outs from the original image.
