Farm hand carves each vanity from ethically sourced wood
salvaged from 200-plus-year-old trees. "Each unique piece tells
its own story and serves as an anchor for growing rustic luxury
design concepts."
"The fusion of forged metal and live-edge wood feels both
modern and timeless," said Kelly Maxwell, founder of Littlebranch
Farm, based in Nashville, Tennessee, noting that all of the richly
grained hardwood has been salvaged from a forest cut over 65
years ago when the trees were in danger of falling on nearby
homes. Rather than allow valuable redwood, American black
walnut, bigleaf maple, and blackeye burl logs to waste away,
LittleBranch Farm removes stumps and other usable parts of the
trees, turning them into coffee tables, fireplace mantels, dining
tables, desks, beds, and bathroom vanities.
"We view each wood vanity as a unique sculpture, hand-
finished to highlight its natural character and imperfections,"
Maxwell explains, noting that each piece takes from two days to
several weeks to make.
Similarly, the artisanal handcrafted style of both brands
creates an enduring natural story that's at home anywhere from
a forest cabin to a modern metropolitan loft. The raw, organic
textures of the bath vanities combine with Sonoma Forge's hand-
forged metal faucets to bring the calming allure of nature indoors.
Each one blends natural charm with elegant warmth to tell its
very own unique, personal story, speaking to designers,
architects, and homeowners seeking the calm connection to
nature that comes from such rustic simplicity.
