At Arbor Furniture, a local Bristol furniture maker, we take pride in crafting exquisite pieces that blend traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design. Our latest creation, a handmade sideboard made from olive ash, is a testament to this philosophy. This unique piece not only showcases the natural beauty of olive ash but also incorporates Japanese-inspired elements, making it an aesthetic and functional addition to any home.

The Beauty of Olive Ash

Olive ash is known for its striking grain patterns and rich, warm tones. Each piece of wood is carefully selected to highlight its natural beauty, ensuring that no two sideboards are exactly alike. The wood’s durability and strength make it an ideal choice for furniture that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Japanese-Inspired Design

Drawing inspiration from traditional Japanese design, our olive ash sideboard features sliding doors and intricate kumiko panels. The sliding doors are not only a space-saving solution but also add a touch of elegant simplicity to the piece. The kumiko panels, handcrafted with precision, showcase the artistry and attention to detail that Arbor Furniture is known for.

Traditional Kumiko Panels

Kumiko is a traditional Japanese woodworking technique that involves assembling wooden pieces without the use of nails or screws. This method creates intricate geometric patterns that are both beautiful and functional. Our sideboard features kumiko panels with Shoji paper screens, adding a layer of translucency and softness to the design. The Shoji paper screens diffuse light gently, creating a serene and calming atmosphere in any room.

Functionality Meets Artistry

While the design of our olive ash sideboard is rooted in tradition, its functionality is thoroughly modern. The sliding doors provide easy access to ample storage space, making it perfect for storing dinnerware, linens, or other household items. Drawing inspiration from Japanese and Mid-century design styles also means this sideboard comfortably works in many different settings.

A Statement Piece for Your Home

Whether placed in a dining room, living room, or hallway, this handmade sideboard is sure to be a focal point. Its unique blend of materials and design elements makes it a versatile piece that complements a variety of interior styles. As a Bristol furniture maker, Arbor Furniture is committed to creating pieces that enhance the beauty and functionality of your home. We aim to make furniture that will last generations, using timeless designs and traditional craft skills.
