Top shop for gifts.
A buyer bought a gift from this shop and gave it a 5-star review!
Announcement
Only 97 items (of many millions) on Etsy were chosen for inclusion in Etsy's "Spring 2013 Lookbook" (a publicity book sent to industry trend-makers). NorthStar50 is pleased to be one of the few included!
A lifelong artist and typographer, I'm interested in many areas of design. With my typographic letters and numbers, my main goal is to stay true to the shape of each form. I make these one at a time, (in my spare time) in my small shop in rural Oregon.
These started out as an experiment to see how accurately I could cut wood. I put a few up here on Etsy, and people have responded very well, so for now, I'll continue to make them.
UPDATE: Once again, I've been become so busy with design work, that I won't be able to take on any custom wood projects for a while. I may be able to post some other pieces in January that were finished a while back.

5 out of 5 starsThis pi symbol is perfect for my bookshelf. I absolutely love the quality and how it stands upright without needing to be propped up. My husband recently passed away in 2020 and our anniversary was on Pi Day.... I can’t express how grateful I am to have stumbled across this shop. I cried when I opened up the box and saw the most perfect knick-knack for my bedroom. Thank you so much 🙏

4 out of 5 starsI do love it (second time I'm ordering this symbol), but I had ordered it in yellow (came in red). It is still very nice though and my son's math teacher really liked it.

5 out of 5 starsThese signs are super cute! We have this symbol in our business logo, so purchased two for the owners to have on their desks and now all the employees want one for their desks too. The red color is not your typical red, more vibrant. Would order again.
