Gordon Swenarton took walks in the woods near his home in New Jersey to look for pieces to make his creations. In many of his pieces, Swenarton hand carved various houses and buildings. An adorable replica of the many factories seen throughout the United States.

Care:
- Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a feather duster regularly.
- For intricate carvings, use a soft brush (like a paintbrush) to reach crevices.
- Wipe with a slightly damp cloth if needed; immediately dry with a soft towel.
- Avoid soaking, submerging, or using harsh chemical cleaners—they can warp or damage the wood.
- Apply a high-quality wood polish, wax, or natural oil (like beeswax or mineral oil) every few months.
- Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade color and dry the wood.
- Keep away from radiators, fireplaces, or heaters to prevent cracking.
- Wood can expand and contract with humidity changes.
- Keep in a stable environment—ideally 40–60% humidity.
- Avoid damp basements or overly dry, heated rooms.
