Wood
Coniferous: Spruce, Fir & Pine
The majority of our products are made from salvaged spruce, fir or pine, reclaimed from 100+ year old barns and cottages that would have otherwise been used for firewood. The wood is rich in history, color, grain pattern and character and we our proud to give the wood a new life. Our tree stumps come from windfall from the forests of Poland, which are taken in limited numbers to preserve the forest habitat. These are sometimes also made from fallen ash and oak trees.
Deciduous: Oak
We salvage Oak slabs that are at least 50 years old from old barns in southern Poland and use this precious wood for our Live Edge tables. Live edge furniture often incorporates gnarly wood that could not be used in conventional woodworking. Due to the unique challenges involved in working with this type of wood, we leave the natural holes and cracks in the wood or fill them with natural resins.
