This Corkboard is made from Wine corks, many from mid-Missouri wines. It is framed in a light colored varnished wood and has heavy duty plywood backing and hanging hardware. It measures 17 1/4 " by 21 1/4 "  and weighs 4.84 pounds. It is more useful than today's store-bought bulletin boards that have 1/8 " cork and has proved to be a conversation piece in the artist's studio.
