Description
All Yosemite coasters are individually made in Olympia, WA using real walnut wood.
**Clean with damp cloth only**
Roughly L 4″ x W 4″ – individual coasters vary.
In the Yosemite Coasters:
- El Capitan
- Half Dome
- Cathedral Rocks
- Yosemite Village
We chose to use real walnut because of its hardness. The maps have intricate and small details that require a high-quality material to guarantee the longevity of each coaster.
It took nearly two years to design and fine tune all five collections of wooden coasters. We tested several different types of wood and made over 60 iterations before we found the balance between topographic map details and a great finished product.
The process starts with a raw piece of walnut hardwood that we do some prep work to it. Then we run that through the laser, do some post laser work, finish every coaster with linseed oil and add the anti-slip silicon pads.
This is actually the first product we have ever created a box for and the box in itself has been an evolution. It feels like you are holding a solid piece of wood in your hands but at the same time you can feel the coasters through the packaging.
We hope you enjoy your coasters as much as we have enjoyed creating them.
As always, reach out to us if you have questions.
