QUARTERBOARDS
Quarterboards & House numbers
These traditional handcrafted quarterboards are carved into Native Eastern White Pine and finished with 3 coats of oil base enamel in a color of your choosing to set each one apart with its own unique character. Once used to identify early sailing ships, the quarterboard is now a distinctive decor which adorns many homes in New England.
Each quarterboard is custom designed to the client's specifications.
