new line - C Tables

Written By Robin Wade

Several new pieces just out of the finishing room yesterday, just in time for the show.  Here is our first pic from a new line - C Tables.  I've had some requests for cleaner, more modern lines, and I think this is a good start.  Particularly thick, solid walnut console and coffee table.  Another interesting feature is that the legs and top are from the same slice of the tree.  Up close, you can see that it not only matches perfectly, but the grain pattern continues down the leg.  Also available in solid, locally sourced maple, cherry and sassafras.

 

Robin Wade
Robin Wade Furniture is a celebration of nature—a melding of a forward thinking commitment to the environment and a quiet, harmonious design aesthetic. From his "slow studio" in North Alabama, award-winning wood artist Robin Wade designs and crafts one-of-a-kind handmade furniture. Years before a piece is ready to enter a client's home or a gallery, the process begins—naturally—with the tree. Sustainably harvested, each specimen of hardwood is flitch sawn into natural-edge wood slabs, debarked by hand with a draw knife, and stacked to dry, usually for years, before the final cure in the kiln. From here, Wade and his team use both hand and power tools to bring Wade's vision to life, and then finish each piece with a hand-rubbed oil blend. Each organic furniture creation by Robin Wade Furniture balances the raw, natural beauty of environmentally, locally sourced hardwoods with minimally invasive, clean lines—a juxtaposition Wade calls both rustic and modern. “I haven’t yet found a better artist than nature,” he says.
