The client wanted a 100lb. slab for a walnut desk.

INCREDIBLE Walnut Slab | Live Edge Desk …Watch me transform this 100 lb slab of walnut into a luxurious live-edge home office desk with brass
accents! Live edge furniture is becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to honor the wood’s
natural beauty - imperfections and all. It fits well within the mid-century modern furniture trend, so
it’s no wonder so many people want this rustic yet modern look in their homes. I was commissioned
to create this gorgeous piece for my client’s work-from-home office and he only had a few requests:
live edge, walnut, simple leg design, and brass accents, all of which came together beautifully. The
simple and modern leg design allowed the walnut slab to have the attention it deserves.
