We’re always on the hunt for pieces that will be around for the long run. It’s true: “built to last” are not words we use lightly.
As it turns out, that’s the best way to describe our new Spindle furniture collection. The collection is tightly curated to include three pieces that every home needs: a bed frame, nightstand and bench in a choice of solid oak, brushed black, or walnut. Opting for these woods was an easy decision: They both have incredible longevity as well as a beautiful grain for a look that’s natural and at ease in any space.
Every piece in this collection was handcrafted in Serbia by skilled artisans with acute attention to detail. While clean and modern, these statement pieces actually nod to the past. Look closely and you’ll see the collection has aspects of classic, windsor-style furniture, as well as inspiration from the spinning wheel, a design with centuries of heritage.
A Solid Choice
Why invest in solid wood? Along with its strength and durability, it has an aesthetic that’s hard to replicate. It’s all about natural appeal that brings instant warmth to your surroundings. No piece of solid wood is alike and it’s exactly that variety that make them so sought after; the grains look different depending on the cut of the wood.
On top of it all, solid wood proves versatile in any setting, be it bedroom, living room, office, den or kitchen. That’s especially true when you take into account the versatility of the Spindle Nightstand and Bench; they can be used in the entryway, dining or living room as a side table or to provide extra seating. Walking the line between modern and rustic is no easy task, but Spindle has it mastered.
Sustainability Matters
Wood is the greenest material possible when it comes to furniture construction. When responsibly sourced, it’s actually the only renewable building material; trees that are harvested for their wood can be replenished by new growth. And wood is actually good for the climate. Trees absorb carbon throughout their life cycle, taking it out of the atmosphere and into their trunks. When wood is transformed into furniture, it continues to store that carbon.
Wood also means zero waste. Whatever doesn’t make it into furniture can be reused for anything from wood chips for landscaping to sawdust that can be burned for heating.
Get To Know Oak
Oak was a popular material in England among the British Tudor monarchs, and it continues to retain its popularity. That’s largely due to the fact that it’s plentiful, durable and resists damage. Another plus: White oak doesn’t have pores, making it resistant to water. Given its lighter shade it brings levity to a space and has a clean, modern feel. Our oak pieces are finished with hardwax oil, which forms a protective layer to help prevent surface stains.
Brushed Black Details
Richly stained black wood gives these pieces a defined and distinctive look in the bedroom. The black stained finish features a protective brushed lacquer coating which highlights the natural wood grain.
Discover Walnut
Walnut was frequently used to make cabinets and other pieces of furniture in the 17th and 18th centuries. Along with its rich color that grabs the eye and anchors a space, there’s a lot to love about this wood. It’s considered superior for its stability and light weight, not to mention distinctive grain patterns. Our walnut pieces are finished with a natural tinted oil, which adds a layer of protection.
We hope you enjoy exploring the Spindle collection and find that perfect place in your home for these pieces.
