Counter Stool

A comfortable seating option for 36" height counters and kitchen islands. I work with a local sawmill to source the wood for these pieces. These stools are built using a traditional post and rung style of construction. The joinery takes advantage of working with fresh "green" wood and controlling the drying process. A shrinking wet mortise combines with an expanding super dry tenon to create a mechanical lock that has been shown to hold up to centuries of use in some examples. All the long grain surfaces are finished with a spokeshave after being turned on a lathe. This sharp hand tool leaves a lightly faceted and glassy smooth surface that is a joy to touch. I hand weave the seats using authentic danish paper cord imported from Denmark.   Black, ebonized, finish is available for an additional cost.
