Bespoke Tree Trunk Side Table - Red Gum with Yakisugi and Iron
$260
SOLD: THIS PIECE HAS SOLD, BUT PLEASE CONTACT US AND WE WILL HAPPILY MAKE A PLAN WITH YOU ABOUT HOW TO MAKE A PIECE THAT MEETS YOUR EXACT SPECIFICATIONS.
If you're a fan of the The Barbican or Trellick Tower, you probably enjoy a touch of brutalism architecture and design. At Workshop87, we love producing the occasional piece that shows our brutalism design leanings. This side table is one of those pieces.
We selected a seasoned segment of red gum from a tree that was felled in Glen Forrest on the Darling Scarp more than a decade ago. The wood has seasoned thoroughly and is sap free and perfect for polishing. The red gum has been cut into a round trunk segment, and was then further cut to expose a face of wood on the side. The top grain shows where the wood was growing into two trunks, branching off from being a single trunk tree.
The wood was then turned on its side while we drove in 3 kilograms of bullet head bright marked shank nails in 50mm x 2.5mm. The nails were all bent to lie flat against the trunk's curve, and directed to show the contours of the wood in the nap of the nails. We then sanded the top and face, revealing the amazing rich red grain, and used the Japanese and Baltic State technique of Yakisugi (also known as shou sugi ban, to char the edges under the nails. From there, we used an angle grinder with a 40grit sanding pad to grind down the nails and make them pop against the wood. The piece was finally put onto 7 (yes, Seven) 12mm x 30cm rebar legs for support, and the sanded faces then waxed with 100% natural beeswax.
The side table is 48cm tall, with a similar diameter. The contrast of the silver nails against the black and red of the wood is amazing, while the glowing grain of the waxed wood is stupendous. The table is a definite one - off, and there will never be another one like it.
Normally we would say that if you would like something like this, we can make another one for you in different woods and different sizes, but we can't with this one. This is a definite one off piece, and will never be repeated. No-one is ever going to have another one, making it absolutely bespoke.
The table, including pictures of it being made, can be seen on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/Workshop87-1024209814310576/
