Seven years ago, I moved back to my native Ozarks with a dream to create an organic modern bluetooth speaker that merged nature and art. I envisioned organic form juxtaposed with vertical lines to indicate the paradox of technology partnered with nature.

I had built custom craftsman wooden windows, doors and a kayak during my sojourn in the Pacific Northwest, yet creating an organic functional art form coupled with linear accents was much more difficult than anything I had attempted.

I started with a Black Walnut log, a mallet and an axe-like tool called a froe. I hewed the rough slab to create a form that mirrored the simplicity and beauty of a tree. The speaker that eventually emerged took dozens of prototypes, broken tools and thousands of hours of sanding in my family’s Ozark barn to refine and complete the design.

Yet, once completed, I was thrilled, and I hope you will be too.

Now I am pleased to partner with one of the leading artisans in the Ozarks to offer very limited batch functional art pieces.

Embersound is a work of art that evokes gathering, listening and beautiful design inspired by nature.

Your personal device merges with a functional art piece to create a warm rich listening experience.
