Apple Carved from Tenino Stone Heads to Capitol | Seattle News
Beskrivelse
They’re burying a time capsule under the U.S. Capitol, set to open in 2276, and Washington’s contribution? A hand-carved apple made from iconic Tenino sandstone. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez chose it to honor the state’s rich stone-cutting legacy, with a personal nod to her great-great-uncle, a local stonecutter. Master carver Keith Phillips, who’s been crafting these apples since 1984, called it an honor—each apple takes 6–8 hours and comes from the same historic quarry. The guild behind him is pushing to preserve the craft, even planning an education center. The apple’s officially in the capsule, though not yet sealed—proof that Washington’s stone legacy is carved in stone, and set to last for centuries.
