Material Curation
Select
To implement the true design of the product, we begin by selecting the right raw materials and ingredients. Our grader first understands the undertone of the product we try to create, and from that, a meticulous process of hand selection begins.
During veneer selection, our graders often sort through passes up to five times. Experience tells them the rough concentration of tannic acid in white oak just by looking at it, while a practiced pinch of the finger acts like a caliper to millimeter perfection.
