Conoid Bench
Live-edge, wide planks are milled, dried, and finished in our Hudson Valley studio. The Conoid Bench surface ranges from 72”-96”. The backrest is crafted with twenty vertical wooden rods, each wider at the center and tapered at the ends. The rods connect to a smooth concave horizontal piece of wood at the top. There is no armrest and the backrest doesn’t stretch all the way to the right, but reaches to the left end of the seat, leaving the wide right edge empty. The angled and shaped supports of the base demonstrate the finest characteristics of Japanese Joinery.
Minimalist and elegant in its design, with its natural, curving edges still intact, our Conoid Bench is inspired by George Nakashima’s iconic Conoid Bench and our appreciation for the design aesthetic inspired by the Midcentury Modern and American Studio movements.
Our Conoid Bench is handcrafted in our Hudson Valley studio from naturally fallen hardwoods; choose to have it fashioned from Black Walnut, Oak, or Cherry. It is brought to our workshop, where it undergoes our signature, hands-on milling, drying, preparation, carving, and finishing, all of which reflect our commitment to sustainability. The entire process from the moment the wood arrives in our facility until it’s shipped to you, takes place on-site.

+ Ordering & Shipping Policies
After you place your order, you can expect to wait about twelve weeks for your furniture to leave our studio. Each part of the process- from selecting the wood that is unique to you and drying it in our kiln, to carving and finishing your piece- takes time. When you place your order, we ask for a 50% deposit. All domestic orders are shipped via our white-glove, in-home delivery service. When your furniture is ready to ship, we will provide you with a shipping quote and invoice for the balance of your order.
