LIVE EDGE WOOD: All wood is locally-sourced and acquired from weathered-down trees found in Maricopa County, AZ. Acquiring these logs from homeowners and tree services allows me to create unique hand-crafted 100% sustainable, repurposed live edge wood art design. All art is made in North Peoria, Arizona. The natural edges, wavy grain lines, quilting, unique colors, knots and bark inclusions are the characteristics that define live edge wood. Each wood slab has specific feature and will vary from log to log milled. The pictures shown on this page is evident of the varying difference in grain patterns and characteristics of the wood. This is what makes live edge wood so distinctive and special. OIL FINISH: Hand rubbed finish using Old Masters clear satin gel polyurethane to bring out the natural beauty of wooden surfaces. EPOXY INLAY: Any voids or cracks from the wood are sealed with epoxy to maintain the integrity of the wood. METAL BASE: I highly recommend metal base for live-edge wood tables. It provides added strength for supporting desert hardwood. The focus should be on the top and not the frame that holds it. The combination of live-edge top and metal base showcase a modern industrial feel. If you have a different metal base preference, I can assist with the design to ensure the required specifications are met. Adjustable leveling feet is recommended when shopping for a metal base. It’s an ideal solution for keeping the furniture balanced in an uneven surface. CUSTOM ORDER: Every piece of functional art I create takes time to make and also depends on the availability of live edge wood materials.

PRICE: Starting at $2,500 to $4,500 (vary in size dimensions)
