Living in the PNW we feel the need to be in touch with nature and what a better way to show it than having a beautiful, custom made piece of furniture right in your living room where you can see it every day. Kevin typically uses locally sourced, spalted maple, alder and old growth cedar.
Wood can definitely have a back story! We source our wood locally. Most of it is procured from the Stillaguamish River Valley with often traceable roots to fires, mudslides, and dead head "lives" that are decades long on the bottom of the river.
Some of our sourcing is a Sequoia variety that was raised locally.
This wood grows insanely fast due to the abundance of water above that of the Sierra Nevada mountains where this wood originally evolved to live.
The resulting wood is very light, making it perfect for mantles and live edge shelves.
Local Western Red cedar in secondary growth logs and the occasional old growth dead head log yield some amazing results when fashioned into a mantle. They are often hundreds of years old with natural distressing from fires, wood worms and decades of time, or longer on the bottom of the Stillaguamish river.
Different style of home calls for different type of finish and style.
