John Bordon Bastogne Walnut Bench

 


Design Plus Gallery presents a Footstool Made by California Artist/Woodworker by John Borden. The walnut stool is hand made of solid walnut wood with a dreaming finish. The material is what is known as Bastogne Walnut that has a stunning array of colors, from golden yellow to reddish brown, often with dark brown to nearly black streaks. It is renowned for its figured grain patterns, including curly, rippled, fiddleback, and crotch figures. Its sapwood can be subtly demarcated from the heartwood, exhibiting paler hues within the same color spectrum. The stool has a middle slit opening with live edge legs and a highly organic look + feel. Is in good condition for its minimal usage.

About The Artist
John Borden is a California native first intrigued with wood working when working as an apprentice to a furniture factory in the Seattle area 40 years ago. He later worked as a finish carpenter building spiral and circular stair cases, laminating the stringer and hand turning each baluster on a lathe. John’s artistic talent has exploded over the last decade and his mastery of woodworking techniques results in beautiful, one of a kind pieces.
