Salvaged slabs.
Hand-tinted rivers.
River tables, coffee tables, and bar tables — built to order in the Skagit Valley from trees that fell on their own.
Three standing lines
One river,
three forms
Every piece carries one of the studio’s four resin tints. Each line keeps its own — you can tell a line at thumbnail distance by the color of its water.
River tables
Full dining-scale slabs, bookmatched around a hand-tinted river. Our founding form, and still the slowest one to leave the shop.
Coffee tables
Lower, denser slabs — burl and crotch figure with shallow amber pours that pool rather than run. Built to be read up close.
Bar tables
Tall, narrow rails on blackened-steel columns, sealed for service. In kitchens and commercial bars from Bend to Bellingham.
On the bench
Confluence
Two halves of one claro walnut crotch, opened like a book. The river runs 96 inches without a straight foot in it — we follow the live edge, we do not correct it.

Slab to table
Six steps.
No shortcuts.
Slab
Salvaged logs from three small mills. We buy trees that fell, not trees that were felled.
Dry
Air-dried one year per inch of thickness, then kiln-finished to 8% moisture. Dated, lotted, stickered.
Flatten
Router-sled flattening to within 0.5 mm across the span. The slab decides its final thickness.
Pour
Hand-tinted resin, poured in lifts of 12 mm. Deep rivers cure in thirds over three weeks.
Cure
Full cure at 72°F before any tool touches the surface again. This is the step we will not compress.
Finish
Sanded to 2000 grit over the resin, hardwax oil over everything. Matte. The grain does the shining.
“We asked for a table our kids would argue over in forty years. What arrived is closer to a landform. Dinner guests trace the river before they sit down, every time.”
