Crafted as a tribute to Dave—a father, chiropractor, and skier—this 12-foot dining table is more than furniture; it is a living portrait of a man who heals, uplifts, and connects.
Once a simple revamp project, this table now anchors the heart of Dave’s Whistler chalet. Just as Dave gathers and cares for those around him, the table becomes a sacred space of communion and warmth, infused with the same steady, generous energy he shares with the world.
At its core lies a turquoise-filled iris, his soul center—radiating protection, calm, and clarity—symbolizing Dave’s essence and the power of honest and clear communication. From this center flow ripples that echo outward, mirroring the lasting imprint of his healing hands. A sliced ironwood seeds embedded in his palms reflects strength, while red and black huayruros guard his left hand and turquoise pours from his right, flowing energy into all who gather here.
A white oak base with quinoa, chia, huayruros, ironwood, and black sesame, turquoise, all embedded in Ecopoxy resin. Every element is chosen with intention, grounding this piece in both physical beauty and spiritual resonance.
Inscribed on the piece:“Like ripples from a stone cast in still waters, your impact resonates through us all with love and might. – Mancho, Dec 18, 2024”
This is not just a table.
It is Dave—strong, open-hearted, and ever-giving—made manifest in seed, wood, stone, and soul.
