Long Island Sound is a tidal estuary that sits between Connecticut and Long Island, and its tidal marshes are some of the bests in the world, producing between three and seven tons of salt marsh grasses each year. The Sound is home to incredible finish and shellfish, one of the most popular aspects of the area.
Each 3D wood map begins with a bathymetric chart. An artist uses the chart’s measurements to laser cut the exact shoreline on pieces of Baltic birch. The birch is glued together and hand-stained to accent the natural beauty of the nautical map, and then points of interest and landmarks are etched into the wood’s surface. Each 3D wood map is finished with a custom-sized solid wood frame and acrylic layer, creating a piece that you will love for years to come.
