“ During the past long winter, I dug deep within myself, to create a piece of furniture that embodied all the passion, philosophy and vigor that I had for furniture making 22 years ago. A piece of furniture created out of locally grown wood, made by our own hands, that was functional, beautiful and central to our lives. Something raw, bare-boned and “naked” of any ego or cleverness. Something true and honest that embodies why we love this rural lifestyle and living in Vermont.” – Charles Shackleton
