Live edge furniture is the latest hype right now.

Straying away from conventional and routine lifestyles seems to be mankind’s favourite trend these days. There are various reasons for this. From the need to stand out to the desire to flaunt our personalities, many of us, especially millennials, make decisions that are far from traditional these days.

As people, we adopt many ways to display our unique personalities. Some of us display it through our dressing or the way we carry ourselves. One other popular way of expressing is through home décor. Yes, you heard that right. Home décor is indeed an impressive way of expression because after all, your home is a reflection of you.

Why have regular interiors and furniture like everyone else when you can have one that is vivacious, edgy and extraordinary?

Traditional and conventional tables from our grandparents’ time come in definite shapes and sizes. We commonly see a perfectly round table at family gatherings or a sleek rectangular one. Someone who’s feeling a little extra courageous would opt for an oblong shaped table. However, a truly creative and artistic person would reward themselves with a live edge table. This seems to be a rising trend lately.

With many of us living in high-rise apartment buildings so far from the ground, the closest thing that connects us with Mother Nature is wood. Hence, it is imperative to include elements of natural wood and plants in our homes. It is vital for the growth of our physical, mental and emotional strength.

Live edge tables are crafted from live edge slabs of wood. This means that wood slabs that are naturally and meticulously sliced from a tree trunk, do not undergo excessive changes or arduous processing so as to retain the natural form of the wood slab as much as possible. That said, it still does undergo certain treatments to ensure that the natural wood remains in good condition and is durable for a long time. We always strive to produce the most artistic and creative products without compromising on the quality.

In their natural live edge form, these live edge tables inspire raw and organic energy.

Live edge and nature are known to make us feel more ‘alive’ by producing more serotonin and epinephrine hormones. These in lay man terms, are known as the happy drug and adrenaline, respectively. Hence, intuitively and proven by studies, we all know that raw, organic nature is good for our health and happiness.

Live edge tables authentically enrich many modern and mid-century inspired homes. The natural form of live edge tables often exudes a rustic appearance and vibe. This blends in well as an accent piece in both modern contemporary and traditional mid-century interiors.

A live edge table comes with many imperfections like the cracks, crevices, knots and so on. These are sometimes accentuated using leather straps strewn together using an arigata technique which is a wood joinery method, but sometimes, they can just be left alone. However, the beauty of the raw wood lies in these imperfections, similar to humans. We have many flaws as humans. Some of us are far from considered conventionally beautiful. However, that just makes us stand out because we are then considered exotic. Similarly, the more imperfections these live edge tables encompass, the more exotically beautiful they are.

Live edge tables are unique.

The grain patterns of the wood are similar to that of chromosomes. Both are impossible to duplicate. Like how there are no humans on Earth who are exactly the same, there are no two slabs of wood that could be possibly identical. This pattern in itself allows the live edge tables to be extremely unique. Hence, the exact live edge table that you have does not exist anywhere else on Earth. Get yourselves your very own live edge tables.
