A field-to-studio company, Alabama Sawyer repurposes the finest wood species, reclaimed from our local urban forests, to create one of a kind furniture pieces and accessories for the home or business. The color is the reaction of burning the pine. There is no stain, so the color may vary. The urban wood features variations inherent to salvaged materials such as a rustic distressed finish, visible knots, hairline cracks and natural stains, which may result in hue variations, rubbed edges, or other antique-like characteristics, that are part of the rustic beauty of these side tables. If the finish cracks or chips, you may see some pine underneath. This is the nature of natural materials and what our customers tell us they love about having urban wood in their home. This is a living finish. Natural materials and will age over time and with exposure to the elements—the more exposure, the quicker they will age. As with all wood, but especially a large solid volume, expansion and contraction due to temperature variability may occur. Multiples can ship LTL on a palette. Message us for shipping quote!
