ANALOG MODERNMODERN LINES DRAWN FROM TRADITIONAL CRAFTDOVETAIL BENCHOur Dovetail Bench with reclaimed Japanese Elm (aka Keyaki or Zelkova). The original patina/finish on the front and back of the bench contrasts with a natural tung-oil finish on the top of the piece. The legs are patined cold-rolled steel. 58W x 12D x 16H. MILK PAINT MORTISE CREDENZAAfter finding an interesting offcut with a housed mortise we resawed it into five pieces and let it air-dry for nearly two years. The single offcut yielded a uniquely patterned flitch forming the inspiration for this hardware-less sliding door credenza. The solid pine doors have sliding dovetail battens to help keep them flat and functional in their sliding tracks. The solid red oak carcase was wire-brushed and then milk painted. Rather than use a standard plywood back we used reclaimed flooring, giving a nod to traditional shiplapped cabinet construction. 59W x 23.5H x 19.5D 17 CABINETThis 42" high display cabinet is part of our Sawyer line.
