Leaving tomorrow for the big hospitality show of the year, HD Expo in Las Vegas.  I'm intrigued with the idea of marketing to high end boutique hotels.  I can see my massive organic coffee tables in the lobbies of the top modern boutique hotels.  - But it's just in my head at the moment.  Will be walking the show again this year to see if I bump into "it".

if you will be attending the HD Expo, and would like to meet for a coffee or to talk tables, I'll only be available Tuesday May 15.  You can email me if you'd like to make an appointment.  robinwadefurniture@mac.com

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.
