Our Mission

Steel & Grain designs tables, chairs, living room, kitchen and dining room furniture, which are unique functional pieces that are built to last a life time. We do this by combining strong elegant steel with natural wood grain that reveals the natural beauty of the material.

Wood

We are always on the lookout for trees that need to be salvaged; We work with home owners, utility crews and arborists to save as many trees as possible. We only use trees that need to be taken down, if a tree is healthy and not hurting anyone we say let it grow! In many cases trees can become damaged from storms or diseases or simply out grow their urban setting. When this happens we are happy to take the logs and turn them into pieces of art that will last generations.

Tools 

I design and create custom furniture pieces using locally sourced wood combined with the strong elegant lines of steel, using both classic and modern tools to achieve the highest level of refinement.

Keep it local

We work with many local businesses; we work with a small local one man sawmill to custom mill all of our slabs to our specs; we also work with several specialized metal shops for precision cutting using high tech CNC cutters and lasers when needed; and for the finest of metal finishes we work with a local family owned powder coating company.

Drying

Properly seasoning and drying the slabs is a vital step in the process. After several years of slowly air drying the slabs will go into a kiln for several weeks to finish stabilizing the wood and kill any insects that have been hiding inside the tree.

It all starts with the wood
