A 40" tall combination piece with drawer storage, and cupboard storage. The top is native elm, milled from trees felled by storm damage -- we maintained the natural curve of the edges of the boards after we removed the bark so the live shape of the tree remains. Case is a triple-tone faux, Indian Hill Blue over Heather's Green over Pekor Blue, all heavily distressed over antique barn wood, fir, and shiplap. Tin ceiling panel insets in doors. Pulls are all very old -- round one is from an antique tub drain stopper. Hinges are carved, from the 1800's. A really special piece. In the post & beam home of a collector who has 6 of our pieces.

Demolition Revival Furniture is a unique green studio woodshop on the island of Martha's Vineyard. We design and build every piece of our functional art furniture and cabinetry out of locally sourced reclaimed wood and salvaged hardware, utilizing approximately 90% recycled materials in each one -- from medicine chests and nightstands to intricate storage hutches and full-wall entertainment consoles, each design is singular and original with details inspired by the materials at hand. We use low and zero-VOC color coats and sealants, and hand-finish each piece with beeswax.
We work with homeowners and interior designers to develop unique new pieces with the look and feel of family heirlooms. We also have a wide range of ready-made furniture available for purchase.

For Birdhouse City Entertainment ConsoleWe love our piece because it incorporates functional space perfectly with a sense of humor. The use of odd bits and pieces in surprising places, and the colors of her design reflect a sense of whimsy which is a unique quality of the artist Laura Silber.

For Custom FurnitureLove Laura's work so much, we have had 6 custom pieces made -- large dining room buffet, bathroom vanity, 2 nightstands, medicine chest, and also one of her birdhouse towers in our entryway for mittens & hats & kid stuff. She's easy to work with, does a great job integrating her artistic rustic style with our color palette and functional needs. It's made our interior really unique, we're hooked.
