Oakland, CA Cork Turntable Mat – Detailed City Map Design
This Oakland cork turntable mat features a detailed map of the city, shaped by its waterfront, urban neighborhoods, and distinctive position on the east side of San Francisco Bay. The design follows the Oakland Estuary through the city toward Lake Merritt, capturing the downtown street grid, the port, the surrounding communities, and the changing shoreline in intricate detail. A great piece for any record collector who loves Oakland, and a memorable gift for a proud Oaklander or anyone with roots in the East Bay.
Part of our Studio Series, the artwork is infused directly into our proprietary high-density cork through dye sublimation, then finished with a protective UV seal. The result is a smooth, detailed surface that brings the artwork to life while preserving the natural character and performance of the cork.
