Today, there are numerous woodworking carving techniques, and each craftsman chooses their own unique method. However, one carving technique stands out for its truly original appearance and is found on any item, from staircases to furniture. This is so-called contour carving, characterized by extremely fine two-sided grooves running along the entire contour of the decorative pattern.
This carving is performed manually using a special chisel. Thanks to the special technique and skill of the woodcarver, the pattern can be achieved as exclusive, remarkably clear and distinct. Patterns executed using contour carving look especially good on dark backgrounds, particularly walnut, oak, or beech wood. Using this type of carving, one can create very beautiful leaves, bird and animal figurines, as well as flowers and other floral motifs.
There are many decorative finishing options for patterns created using contour carving. These patterns can be sanded with lacquer, stained with dyes and other materials. Moreover, due to their three-dimensionality, the patterns can be polished and filled with lacquer containing bronze powder, thus contrasting with the overall background. On any item made of natural wood (sofas, beds, stair balusters), decorative patterns executed using contour carving look elegant and exclusive.
