Abacus

I can make a traditional Chinese style. I can make different shapes of beads. The wood can be stained or painted. Maybe you would like one made of mahogany? How about a colorful wall hanging in the kids room? The possibilities are nearly endless. Let me know what you want and I'll make one tailored just for you. The price varies greatly. All abacai are custom. I have to know details of what you like to be able to give you a proper price quote. I am more than happy to take the time to ask questions and figure out exactly what would be the perfect piece for you. Below is my standard price list. I USE VALSPAR PAINTS AND MINWAX STAINS. ALL ABACI ARE HAND PAINTED IF PAINT IS DESIRED. PLEASE USE THESE LINKS TO DETERMINE YOUR DESIRED COLORS. ALL COLORS THAT I DON'T HAVE IN STOCK WILL BE AN ADDITIONAL $3. PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR A CURRENT PALETTE OF COLORS IN STOCK.
