The Giant Ogre's Paddle
The Ogres Paddle is 9.2m long, carved from a tropical hardwood called purple heart timber, including scenes from the Sea Swallow book, along with words taken from the very story itself.
It's a living piece, which has changed colour over time as the wind and rain, sunshine and sand has weathered the wood and mellowed it, just as a real life paddle would. It's also been nourished with wood preservative.
