The focus of Green Tree Furniture is the wood, and
nature's natural forms. Our chairs organically cradle
the body, our Tables highlight the spectacular grain
of wood. All design focus on combining human and
natural elements.
All of our materials are crafted and designed to make
the healthiest home and environment for your family.
We strive to avoid harmful materials glues or
finishes, no matter how fashionable it may be!
A crack representing the heart of the tree is
embraced and held tight with inlaid butterfly
dovetails. Dovetails lock the fold tight. Our hand
made joinery follows teachings practiced for
millennia, ensuring that our furniture will last that
long.
Preserving the sprit of a tree for generations is a
sign of respect. Our furniture is built to last
longer then the 100 years it takes a tree to grow
from seedling to maturity.
All Green Tree furniture is Carbon Neutral; its
creation had no negative impact on climate change.
The Green Tree Studio is entirely solar heated, and
100% of the electricity used to power tools and
lights in the studio is purchased wind power. The
remaining carbon footprint is offset with trees
planted to sequester carbon.
Green Tree uses natural finishes. Most of our pieces
are hand polished with natural shellac & wax.
Each batch is freshly mixed to give the finish the
best color, depth, and durability.
Green Tree Furniture is developing a revolutionary
modular cabinet and furniture system for building
your own sustainable habitat.... think of it as
sustainable legos for grownups :)
