This wonderful Madrone Tapered End Rolling Pin is handmade by my husband who enjoys spending a great deal of time creating each wooden utensil for your home. He spends many hours collecting the dead branches and tree fall-downs and then in his woodshop lovingly cutting, carving, sanding and finishing with these woods. We have great respect for these trees and are grateful to give them a second life with these practical kitchen tools. 
 
Add a touch of Parisian style to your baking! This style of rolling pin is perfect for rolling out your pastries. It's handcrafted from a beautiful piece of Madrone wood and has some really lovely grain! I asked my husband to turn one on his lathe for me from this particular wood as it has a nice tight grain and finishes up really smooth so it's perfect for this kitchen tool. And now after using mine........I absolutely love it! We thought we'd share with our awesome customers so he's made a couple more for our shop.
 
Pacific madrone is distributed on the Pacific Coast, from southwestern British Columbia south through Washington to western Oregon, and in the Coastal Ranges to south California. The heartwood is described as light pink to pale reddish-brown, sometimes with deep red spots. It has an irregular pattern of growth rings, which gives the wood a very decorative effect. It's a wonderful  sturdy hardwood and I'm loving having these tools in my kitchen!
 
Hand wash and dry your wooden tools. They should never be soaked in water.
