Handcrafted
and made to last ...
Design and details set this collection set it well apart
from the manufactured furniture offered by the various
catalog companies. The most important is that all of the
pieces are custom-made for each client in Seattle rather
then imported. The ELLIOTT
BAY COLLECTION reflects the same attention to design and
detail, robust materials, joinery, and the superb function
and comfort for which the Arts & Crafts era was known.
Using a variety of high-end joinery techniques normally
seen in high-end custom indoor furniture and utilizing
high-quality sustained growth outdoor woods such as
mahogany and jarra and assembled with advanced adhesives,
make this line simply the most robust outdoor furniture
available. As a final touch, the furniture uses a special
Brazilian rosewood oil outdoor finish that preserves and
brings out the natural color and beauty of the wood while
protecting it, yet is extremely easy to maintain.
Though the pieces are designed and finished for rugged
outdoor use, some of them such as the benches and stools
are also available in hand-rubbed oil finished indoor
versions as well. For example, some of my backless bench
customers order them as entry benches, and several clients
order my unique Arts & Crafts bar stools for indoor
use.
