The Meticulous Drying Process:

Each hand-cut slab is air-dried and stacked naturally for around 1-3 years.

Next these are meticulously kiln-dried.

This is a detailed 4+ year process to eliminate insects and critically stabilize the wood. This also drastically reduces cupping, warping, cracking, and splitting over time.

As Kristopher states: “I know of no other table... which costs so much to dry and age. The meticulous aging process produces a stability and workability you will find in no other table at any price.”

Handmade, One-Off Pieces: Kristopher treats each of his pieces personally, as he accepts not more than 1-3 commissions every month. This is because each piece takes about 90 days of exclusive care in order to emerge as a design as envisioned.

“I take pride in the tables I produce and the relationships cultivated along the way.”

Custom Steel Bases: These are made from American steel and powder coated for sturdiness and durability. Each of these are designed with clean lines to complement the natural table top.
