Hard wood shuttles

We're now crafting several of our classic shuttles from plum wood—and we absolutely love it! Plum is truly beautiful, with striking grain contrasts and hints of purple, red, and green. Some of our plum wood comes from old trees in our orchard, and some has been salvaged from friends’ homes and even bonfire piles! This wood comes from a once-popular, very sour yellow plum variety—known for its gut-friendly qualities and still cherished in Japanese cuisine. While many of these trees have been replaced by sweeter types, we're proud to preserve their legacy by turning them into tools for beautiful weaving.
