What precisely is it that makes the Yin and Yang such a significant symbol? We at Wavecrest Woodcraft might venture a guess that it is its elegant, aesthetically-appealing representation of a profoundly complex universal truth: that dichotomy, or difference, can define rather than divide. Absent darkness we would not know light, after all; without ugliness we would have no notion of beauty. This product page is perhaps not the place for philosophy, so suffice it instead to simply say that together, the Yang and Yin is a powerful thing.
How It’s Made
Our Yin Yangs are composed of carefully paired layers of high quality 3mm ply, variously veneered with birch, bubinga and walnut, amongst other hardwoods, before being scored, engraved and cut to size.
These bare layers are then painted with watercolours and / or dyed with a variety of inks and stains before finish is applied and assembly occurs. Last but not least, the final assembly is fitted and fixed into a 25x25cm shadow box frame. These come in three shades: black, white and grey.
Every Piece Unique
Please note that no two of our Yin Yangs are the same! As a consequence of the distinctive grain patterns of the hardwood veneers we adhere to our sustainably sourced substrates, as well as our in-house painter’s artistic inclinations, every piece we produce is completely unique: a one-of-a-kind work of art with a depth and complexity certain to catch the eyes of passers-by.
The piece you see here is just one of The Yin Yangs we have available for sale. You can see some of the others we’ve made here.
Create Your Own
If none of The Yin Yangs we have in stock are quite right for you or your space, don’t worry – we get it. That’s why we’re happy to offer you the option to Create Your Own. Your options include:
a selection of hardwood veneers
a choice between black, white or grey frames
your selection of two contrasting colours for our artist to incorporate into the design
Simply add The Yin Yang (Create Your Own) to your cart and complete the form that pops up when checking out to provide the additional details we’ll need to start work on your own personalised Feather.
Production on these pieces can take up to 10 days, but please be patient – we promise to make sure your custom version of The Yin Yang is worth the wait.
