Scrap-Wood, Steel and Walnut office set

This office set was custom-built for a customer in Las Vegas...built from scrap wood, walnut and blackened steel. Once again, a nice collaboration with my shop neighbor Mike Cleaver.

Salvaged Bleacher Plank Desk

Pancho didn't realize he was immortalizing himself on a custom desk when he carved his name into the Richmond High School bleachers.  I stripped the decades of chewing gum, lacquer and graffiti from these douglas fir planks. The reddish patina and carvings remain. Each of the planks has a lot of character, and would make a great table-top or coffee table.

These planks are also going into the new Toast Wine Lounge in Rockridge as their 32 foot long wall bench, and will provide the facing for their wine bar.

The desk frames were custom built by Micheal Cleaver, and can be made to order.

Bleached Maple and Red Gum Chest

The perfect toy chest for the sophisticated, mid-century modern toddler. This is built from solid bleached maple with the red gum(eucalyptus) front. Hairpin legs complete the look.
