Crafted from solid Knotty Alder Hardwood, our furniture is built for everyday use and ready to become your next heirloom. Every piece is hand-finished in the color of your choosing, then sealed with a polyurethane finish to further protect the surface. Surface area knots are filled for a smooth finish, while all other knots are left open and natural.

For added safety, we recommend securing the furniture to the wall, as all inherently top-heavy furniture can tip if misused. Please note that hardware for securing is not included.
