island barn whale bench

Reclaimed roughsawn old growth wood bench with mid century modern hairpin legs.

Whale bench because something of the sea has taken root.
Island barn because the old barns of Puget Sound are where much of our wood comes from.

PLANK
Douglas fir plank smoothed for function while preserving the roughsawn texture and deepened wood tone from years doing work just out of the elements, rain and salt air, brief intermissions of sun. Traces of the sawmill blade and patina intact. Benchtop is sealed with teak oil.
