Crafted entirely from American black walnut in Bristol, it channels mid-century modernism through tapered legs while the rich, figured wood grain becomes the focal point—no upholstery to hide behind. This works beautifully anchoring dining areas or kitchen islands where you want seating that doubles as a design statement. Fair warning: as a made-to-order piece, there's lead time involved, and walnut's deep tones shift subtly with sunlight exposure over years. Pair it with lighter woods or stone countertops to let the grain breathe.
