Maple Burl Shot Glass by Gentry Crafted
Dimensions: Approx. 3.5" tall × 2" diameter
Crafted from Maple Burl, this shot glass highlights the wood’s dramatic figure—swirling grain, knots, and shimmering contrasts that make every vessel one-of-a-kind. Burl wood is prized for its unpredictable beauty, and stabilization ensures the piece remains resistant to humidity changes, preventing expansion or contraction while enhancing durability.
From the photo, the glass reveals a smooth cylindrical silhouette with gently rounded edges, polished to a soft sheen. The natural luster of the burl catches the light, emphasizing its depth and organic character. Compact yet substantial, it feels solid in the hand and adds a refined touch to any gathering.
Finished with a food-safe blend of walnut oil, beeswax, and carnauba wax, the glass gleams with warmth while being protected for practical use. During the first several uses, you may notice a trace of walnut oil residue with your drink—this is completely normal and does not affect taste or quality.
Each piece is individually made by Gentry Crafted, using wood sourced from small businesses to support ethical and sustainable practices. More than a vessel, this shot glass is a celebration of fine woodworking and the natural beauty of Maple Burl—a functional work of art designed to elevate any table setting.
