Reclamation Furniture Project


Mission:

  • To build within the natural cycle of materials.
  • To integrate a sense of place into the built world.
  • To create safe, useful, and beautiful furniture.

Materials

The materials used are chosen based on performance, environmental profile, and beauty. Resources are attained from venues that are local, certified as sustainable, or salvaged. We do not use toxic glues, materials that off-gas, or create an environmental hazard in their production or disposal. The natural grain of woods, quality hardware, and story behind each piece give it unique beauty.

Finishes

All finish work is done with high quality natural substances, such as shellac, oils, and casein-based paint. These finishes are durable and have no harmful effects on the consumer, worker, or environment.
