 FROM TREE TO TABLE... Live edge slabs are becoming ubiquitous in modern design. Those wishing to make a major statement in a room are starting to recognise the high impact potential of raw timber slabs. Coming directly from nature, our wind-felled slabs, once rescued from the elements and professionally dried have magnificent edges and speak of decades of natural growth. We recommend that they are be left raw and unrefined by traditional, straight-edge shaving methods. The statement you'II make is one of respect for nature and its organic lines. We take inspiration from George Katsutoshi Nakashima, the Japanese American wood worker, architect and furniture maker. As a key innovator and founding father of the American craft movement, Nakashima's body of work is revered in 20th century design and showed absolute respect for the beauty of timber's natural edges.

Hi there i’m looking for two items — a small meeting table to be inside a 10ft by 10 ft room and then a desk (live edge and possibly walnut — open to seeing other wood type) I want a rustic look with black legs. 12/13/2021 01:42:12 pm
