Elm 18
There once was a 150 year old Elm tree that graced the front of our workshop. Its long life as a tree ended, so we decided to repurpose it to live on indefinitely. Below are several pieces created from this magnificent tree. There's more Elm 18 left. Let us design something just for you.

Waterfall bench
This slab inspired me to emphasize the natural grain of the wood. I created a bench that shows the grain utilizing a waterfall leg while maintaining the natural live edge along the front and back of the bench. The steel leg design replicates the look of a elm leaf. Bringing all the elements to make a striking one-of-a-kind bench.
