Scott Morrison Rocker Cradle

Filed under: Decor

This Rocker Cradle from Scott Morrison is a classic revisited. Morrison, who lives in Montana in a house on a mountain, specializes in creating unique wood furnishings. This chair updates a 1700s Windsor style nanny rocker by using spindles that connect the shapes of the base and the rail creating a harmoniously fluid sculptural effect. The rocker is made using a variety of hand tools and is done with an attention to detail that takes into account the unique personality of the wood. Each piece is also hand rubbed with a mixture of tung oil and resin for a protected finish. The chair in English Walnut sells for $10,500.

Enzo Bellini Butterfly Table

Filed under: Decor

This simple and elegant wooden table is the work of Enzo Bellini, a Colorado-based designer who is passionate about woodworking. His furniture has a sculptural aspect to it and he seeks to create designs that are both functional and artistic. His butterfly dining table and chairs use plenty of flat planes which highlight the natural beauty of the wood used. Also check out the look of the chairs. Gone are the standard four legs. The chairs use a butterfly shape that mimics the table support, stabilized with a crosspiece of wood at the base. The side chairs are supported by a butterfly shape that bisects the chair vertically and the end chairs use the same piece only horizontally. It's details like this that make Bellini's pieces so interesting. The butterfly table starts at $15,000.
