Mirage Wood Products offers a variety of handcrafted spalted alder switchplates -- ideal additions to your home decor, and perfect as special gifts for friends and relatives who appreciate the natural, rustic West Coast appeal of high quality wood accessories.
The business is located on scenic Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, and is owned and managed by Russ Hannay. Russ employs a process called "spalting" to enhance the hardwood -- allowing the wood to reveal both its spalting pattern and a cross-section of the tree's growth rings.
The resulting products exhibit a rich mixture of red and brown earth tones, blended with streaks of a lighter honey colour -- giving each unique piece a warm and weathered character.
