Customizations
The luxury of modern machines, such as CNC, and duplicate carvers, allow for a safer process for our artisans without the loss of personal touches such as undercuts, deep scoops and chisel marks created by the carver’s skilled use of traditional chisels.
By crafting each piece individually, Kindel Grand Rapids’ artisans accentuate natural grain patterns with glaze or padding, giving full play to qualities unique to the figure of that particular wood.
Our process is complex and requires over thirty steps, with the final detail of hand rubbing, which creates a luxurious depth of finish and tactile feel that’s second to none.
Ranging from clear wood stains to artistic painted finishes, metal leafing, hand painted faux marble finishes, and even customization, each of our eighty finishes is uniquely created through hand applications and ensures no two pieces are alike.
