Wooden World Map Watch

Show someone you mean the world to them with this timeless and organic piece of art. My most popular design has been this world map, made from (I believe) seven different kinds of wooden veneer that I scanned and used as patterns on different parts of a vector world map, so that - if looked at closely - each country can be made out. The background is a lovely dark rio rosewood veneer. I, myself, like the idea that I can have things with lovely patterns of exotic wood without any more trees having to be cut down to do so, and so printed wooden patterns are a favourite of mine too from an environmental viewpoint. The wooden look makes for both a classical and modern statement of style, with a certain timeless flair to it. And the world itself is a beautiful work of art.
