Details
The Primitive integrates the finest wood from responsibly managed forests in Turkey with Naturalist's perfected resin-pouring technique. This fusion of natural elements with modern materials is at the heart of Naturalist's work, and the Primitive flawlessly embodies this concept. Its edges are straight cut to show the depth of the wood and its intricate detailing, resulting in a modern feel that seamlessly melds high design with a timeless elegance. The Primitive illuminates the harmony between the walnut wood and epoxy resin and is hand-finished by one of our skilled makers to ensure each piece is perfectly smooth. We offer a variety of bases, resin-to-wood ratios, and dimensions to ensure a perfect fit into any space. Both classic and chic, the Primitive is a testament to the power of artisanal design and the value of bringing natural elements into your home. ----------------- This item will be made-to-order asa rendition of the piece shown!
There are hundreds of wood species, each with distinct characteristics. At Naturalist we work with solid black walnut wood. Natural hardwood products are never as uniform as manufactured materials, for example but that's the source of their charm. Heartwood, the oldest, densest, innermost section of the log, is often darker and richer in color than sapwood, which lies closest to the bark. Within every tree is an individual, just like you and I. No two logs carry the same signature knots, burls, or mineral streaks. In our made-to-order tables (or renditions) the lumbers harmonize, but they vary in color, grain, and an unlimited range or natural details called character marks in comparison to the pieces shown. The features within any single log are unpredictable. No two slabs, even if from the same log, are identical.

- The most common natural characteristics seen are:
- Grain: the direction, size, appearance, and quality of the fibers that give our tables strength and distinctive patterns.
- Growth rings: layers of wood added to a tree during a single growing season.
- Knots: hard, cylindrical regions marking locations or branches that have been encased by later growth of the tree.
- Burls: rounded growths on a tree that produces curling, ornamental patterns in lumber.
- Mineral streaks: olive or grayish markings caused by environmental factors, such as trace elements in water or soil.
