Following heavy storms, our artisan partners in Mexico search the forest for fallen trees, salvaging as many as possible to preserve the remarkable beauty of naturally aged wood. Each log of Mexican ash is carefully oyster-cut, arranged, and hand stained before being united with fragments of sustainably harvested European ash burl to create extraordinary mosaic-like surfaces. Combined with weathered steel bases, the result is the rustic character and timeless craftsmanship of our Polanco Collection. Handcrafted from oyster-cut fragments of salvaged Mexican ash and sustainably harvested European ash burl, every desk showcases distinctive swirls, knots, and natural graining patterns. A hand-applied reactive finish enhances the depth and tonality of the wood, while a protective acrylic lacquer provides durability and a subtle sheen. The base is crafted from steel panels intentionally exposed to the elements, allowing them to develop a rich patina with naturally occurring dimples and speckles that create striking contrast against the warmth of the wood. Oyster-cut surfaces may display cracks, scorch marks, water stains, and other organic characteristics that contribute to the individuality of each piece without affecting its quality or performance. Designed with understated functionality in mind, the desktop features elegant ledge detailing around the edges, while a center drawer with under-mounted soft-close glides provides convenient storage and smooth, quiet operation. Artisan crafted from natural materials with hand-applied finishes, each Polanco Writing Desk displays one-of-a-kind variations in color, pattern, shape, and texture, ensuring that no two pieces are exactly alike.
