Liot Carpentry

A custom live-edge coffee table that Chris recently crafted as a wedding gift for his best friend and partner. The slab came from a Pine tree that fell during a hurricane on his friend’s property on the South Shore. From there it was in dry storage outside for five years, and inside for the last year to get the humidity levels in the wood just right. Lots of planing, sanding, and shellacking later and this table was born. A black painted base, with a hard maple apron and reclaimed pallet for the splayed legs rounds out the piece.

Swipe to see some behind the scenes shots and this table’s counterpart (live-edge coffee table with a slab from the same tree) Chris finished a couple of years ago that currently lives in his parents’ guest space. 👌🏻

Back in January, Chris worked diligently to finish installing the new baseboards and trim on the main level of our house. This was my birthday gift from him and it made me so happy to see the finishing details of our reno come together! -M
