Burl furniture is a trademark of true-handcrafted custom wood furniture. Our expert furniture makers consider burl wood to be highly prized components in any natural wood furniture design. Although burls happen in trees around the world, we prefer to use highly figured burl wood slabs found in the Pacific Northwest of the USA. These are highly sought after by furniture makers and Diy woodworkers alike in crafting their burl furniture. Some of the more popular are Redwood Burl, Bigleaf Maple Burl, and Claro Walnut Burl, but it can also be pricey as burl happens in only 5% to 10% of trees. We prefer only to use ethically sourced wood harvested from dead standing trees or logs and root systems left behind on the forest floor by the turn of the century loggers.

Custom wood furniture
At Littlebranch Farm, our custom furniture maker uses natural live edge wood to craft one-of-a-kind custom rustic furniture. This allows us to design and build live-edge tables, rustic beds, and rustic bathroom vanities. Working with the natural raw edge wood and live-edge wood slabs, our custom furniture makers combine burl wood slabs with many different styles of bases while working with the natural raw edge wood and live-edge wood slabs. One of these styles is a natural root base, which creates a raw, organic, and untampered natural look. Another popular favorite with our customers is the medieval or simple rustic style, which uses smaller burl slabs for the base. We incorporate antler bases to create a more western feel and handcrafted custom metal bases to create a contemporary rustic furniture look.
