Beam Bench - Mortise and tenon from reclaimed spruce
$999.00
-
Inspired by the material This design came to us when we were admiring the beautiful weathered end on one of our spruce beams. The beam had such an appealing curved end from a rough chainsaw cut several decades ago we just couldn't let it go to the scrap pile. We did our best to reimagine that beautiful weathered end grain into a strong and sensible piece of functional art. A design that respects the material and the character that our natural environment engraved on it.
This reclaimed beam bench features an oversized mortise and through tenon joint that is excessively strong and gives a striking contrast projecting through the stout legs. Much like our dovetail beam bench, These benches utilize a simple and obvious joint that feels honest. The oversized beams impart a solid grounding energy to any room that the photos really don't do justice to.
As you'd guess, every bench is unique due to the nature of the source material. We usually have 1-3 in stock and also build them to order with approximately 4 week turnaround.

Functional art for all the salmon lovers out there!
I set out to create something beautiful and unique that could enter your daily life.
Wood, steel, and concrete - the magic trifecta. If you haven't experienced the combination of these materials it's hard to describe. Strong, solid, hard, soft, cold, warm, smooth and textured all together.
Neighbor Rob Wiard has been producing concrete panels with salmon as a sort of ongoing experiment. I guess his enthusiasm was contagious and my imagination would not be still amongst the growing stacks of schools of salmon.
Looking around the shop I put the pieces together, first a strong steel frame to hold the heavy and solid concrete. Then warm and storied wood to soften things and create a shelf and space for the hooks.
These wall shelves with hooks will fit into entryways, bathrooms, bedrooms and. . .?
Every piece is unique and one of a kind. Small changes are made in the steel frames as materials and ideas come and go. Every concrete panel has different coloring and patterns. The wood shelf and hook boards are selected and processed to highlight unique characteristics whether driftwood cedar, live edge birch, or weathered spruce.
When you order please describe your selected piece. If I have any questions I'll contact you to clarify. Custom colors and sizes are available, Contact Us for a quote.
Barstool - Reclaimed Wood and Metal
$475.00

We set out to design a barstool using our stock of reclaimed 1 1/4" rusty steel, and a nice sturdy piece of reclaimed spruce. The challenge we gave ourselves was to build it without using screws, glues, or any fasteners. Here it is, a puzzle of sorts, the wood seat is captured by the steel in a secure way without the use of any fasteners. The design requires the welding of the frame to be completed after placing the seat. A small inconvenience for what we believe is an inspired and simple design.
The weathered spruce seat and rested metal gives this barstool and timeless appearance. We even weather the fresh metal work so that there are no glaring manufacturing marks to distract you from the natural patina. It could be 20 years old and you'd never know the difference.
