Goat Wall Carving

There is a quiet dignity to the goat — sure-footed, patient, built for difficult ground. This wall carving takes that quality as its starting point, shaping the form from beech wood sourced from the Black Sea forests of northern Turkey into one of the largest pieces in the collection.

The form is first established by machine, then passed entirely to hand — the horns, the posture, the texture of the coat all refined by chisel and blade until the piece reads as carved rather than cut. At 35.4 inches wide, it holds its own on any large wall.

THE FINISH

Once sanding is complete, the piece receives a single finish: pure olive oil, nothing else. It absorbs into the beech rather than coating it, deepening the natural warm tone and nourishing the grain from within. No varnish, no lacquer, no paint. The color you see is the wood itself.

A NOTE ON NATURAL VARIATION

No two pieces are identical. The grain shifts from one block of wood to the next — tone, texture, and pattern will differ slightly from what you see in the photograph. What arrives is its own thing.
