Some stories are so powerful, they whisper through generations. This is one of them.
Before this buffet graced your home, its timbers stood for 100 to 200 years as part of an American barn. But its story stretches back further, to a time when the majestic American Chestnut—”the Redwood of the East”—dominated our forests. This wood, with its distinctive ‘wormy’ character, is a last, tangible echo of that once-great species, tragically lost to blight. To own this piece is to hold a fragment of that vanished forest, a testament to resilience and beauty.
You’re not just acquiring furniture; you’re preserving a piece of an almost forgotten natural history.
Our master artisans treat this precious reclaimed wormy chestnut barnwood with reverence, handcrafting each detail to honor its profound legacy. Feel the enduring quality of the solid hardwood face frame, top, and inlayed sides. Experience the smooth, robust action of dovetail drawers, a hallmark of heirloom quality, fitted with soft-close hinges, and the warm, substantial grip of aged brass pulls and knobs.
Inside, discover an integrated eight-bottle wine rack, perfectly designed to cradle your vintages, and adjustable shelving behind the doors. This piece arrives fully assembled, a complete narrative ready to enrich your living space.
Own more than a buffet. Own a legacy. Own a piece of the American forest, reimagined to tell its extraordinary story in your home for generations to come.
