About the Item

Scaled to function as either a side table or petite coffee table, this sustainably sourced redwood root and walnut piece celebrates the beauty of decades of growth documented, written into the wood’s grain, through whorls, flecking, tiny knot eyes and voids, like a topographical map. With a veritable firework display of interwoven grain pattern, color and organic lines, the qualities of this small slab of live edged redwood are framed as cleanly and elegantly as possible to allow the top to remain an essential focal point. Two squared edges have been introduced into the riot of movement of the root structure, offering some juxtaposition to the beautiful, naturally lobed shape. We’ve hand-turned, stepped and finely tapered four ’crayon' legs in sustainable, salvaged Hudson Valley walnut, whose dark hue sets off the warm russets of the redwood. The giant redwoods were decimated by decades of intense logging and development until finally national protection intervened. Since unlike the rest of the wood we work with, we aren’t personally present for the stump to slab transition for the redwood we use, finding an ethical, sustainable Californian company who would mange and be sensitive to the intricacy of Redwood burl removal, from long-dead stumps out of hundred year old logging operations on private, never public, land, was essential. And having found those individuals, we feel privileged to be able to use redwood sparingly in the context of our work. A piece like this can be customized to fit your space. Most of the pieces we create at Moran Woodworked Furniture are commissioned works. For us, the beauty of commissioned work is that it is bespoke to your space and evolves out of a relationship we build with you over time. Furniture is both an aesthetic object and one that must fulfil its function, so the finishes we use reflect beauty and durability equally, without compromising a consciousness towards our environment. We believe the natural beauty of wood is best displayed without the application of stains. Layer by layer, we hand rub our clear Tung oil based finishes into the wood. Our finishes preserve the natural color, luminance and touch of the wood grain. They provide a strong, low maintenance, ring-free and environmentally friendly surface. Our furniture is handcrafted from sustainable wood with unique stories, shared through traditional joinery and a considered modern aesthetic. Each piece comes with a history of the tree and details of the design. While designed jointly by the two of us, Celia Gibson & Michael Moran, our woodwork, from turned legs to hand-cut joints, is built entirely by Michael in our Hudson Valley workshop.
