Canarywood Cribbage Board — 3-Track Game Set (Ready to Play)

Description A 3-track canarywood cribbage board built for the kitchen table, the cabin counter, and the game-night seat you’ve been holding for thirty years. I hand-finish each one in my Virden, Manitoba woodshop from solid canarywood — a dense tropical hardwood prized for its golden-orange tones and dark grain streaks. First, the material is rare. Canarywood (also called tarara amarilla) ages with sunlight; as a result, the grain shifts and deepens over the years. Your board will look better at year twenty than it did on day one. What makes a canarywood cribbage board different Canarywood is harder than most North American hardwoods. Because the grain runs deep with contrast — golden body, dark streaks, occasional rust-red bands — no two slabs come out the same way. Meanwhile, I finish each board with mineral oil and beeswax: food-safe, and reapplyable in a few minutes once a year. Most importantly, this is a board that ages into something more, not less. How to play with it Every canarywood cribbage board ships ready to use tonight. So when the box arrives, the game starts the same evening. Inside: six wooden pegs (mixed colors), a full deck of playing cards, and a soft velvet drawstring bag for both. The center track carries an engraved maple leaf — a quiet Canadian punctuation. Afterwards, the whole set tucks away inside any drawer. Care, custom work, and shipping First, wipe with a soft dry cloth after use. Second, avoid prolonged direct sunlight and standing moisture. Finally, a light coat of butcher block or mineral oil once a year keeps the canarywood glowing. Other hardwoods built on request: walnut, maple, Black Limba, padauk, purpleheart. Ships from Virden, Manitoba via Canada Post with tracking, typically arriving in 1–2 weeks across Canada and 2–3 weeks to the US.
