Adrian Selby grew up as a creative kid in both Germany and Vancouver, BC. He has a creative, thoughtful approach to his designs and creations as a craftsman. After getting his diploma in jewellery art and design at Vancouver community College, he spent 25 years forming and fabricating gold and silver jewellery. Years later his love turned from metal to wood. He loves designing and building functional art!
I make end-grain hardwood cutting boards in my shop here in the Highlands in Victoria BC. I design and build them on my own and have been making them for about 10 years. I use mostly American Cherry, Eastern Hard Maple, and Black Walnut woods, with some exotic hardwoods for accents. I source all of my materials as rough sawn from the mill from local retailers here in Victoria.
