The Naturalist Stool

The naturalist is the next in our line of stools. We plan on making these in a variety of sizes from 17"-30" tall. We decided the name naturalist fits this design for a number of reasons. First, the front edge of the bench maintains the natural edge of the trees shape after the bark is carefully removed and the edge is sanded smooth. Second the triangular shape cuts down on the overuse of materials if we use 13" wide flitch cut boards (natural edge on both sides) and alternate our pattern from one edge to the other. Last but not least the material we use for these benches is either salvaged or sustainable and our finish is plant based. With their rustic/modern California contemporary look we think they are going to be a hot item and look forward to building a lot of these. These stool seats will come standard in American black cherry, American black walnut, or maple. Same wood choices for the legs.

Here are some pics, enjoy!
