buoy bell bench
reclaimed wood bench with recycled content steel legs - modern industrial - urban salvage - wood and steel together
From reclaimed roughsawn old growth Douglas fir and hotrolled steel angle and flat bar. Solid wood benchtop. Custom fabricated legs. Elemental, refined. Will endure for generations.
Fir salvaged from warehouses, barns and other industrial agrarian buildings in Tacoma, Seattle and the Puget Sound area. Wood worked smooth, to a balance of blade, patina, figure and grain. Has the pull and gravity of time, wear, work and forest.
Finished with locally-produced teak oil and burnished with steel wool.
Price is for benches up to approximately 48" long x 18" high x 11-1/8" wide
PLANK
Douglas fir plank sanded smooth while preserving the deepened tone of years doing work in the elements, absorbing rain and salt air with brief intermissions of sun. Traces of the sawmill blade and patina totally intact, only lightly cleaned, on edges and underside
FINISH
Wood is finished with a locally-produced teak oil and beeswax. Steel legs powdercoated black for an enduring, low maintenance finish
