Puget Sound, WA 3D Nautical Wood Chart production process: Measuring 24.5" x 31", each chart begins with accurate bathymetric data that defines the Sound’s depths and contours. An artist laser-cuts premium birch wood into precisely shaped layers, which are stacked and bonded to create a true three-dimensional representation of the seafloor. The water areas are hand-stained to enhance depth and movement, while place names, roads, points of interest, and depth markings are engraved directly into the surface. The piece is completed with a custom-fit wood frame and protected by durable acrylic glass, resulting in a museum-quality chart designed to last for generations.
