Product Description
Our Tisbury Writing Desk features one drawer and solid Hevea wood and ZERO VOC Paint. The Shakers kept everything simple. We like their thinking, but can't help ourselves when it comes to color. Our Martha's Vineyard Collection is domestically made in the USA. The furniture is made to order and constructed of solid Hevea wood. Hevea trees are known for their production of a rubber-like sap. These trees are tapped for their sap, much like a maple tree, and the sap is the main source for most of the world’s latex production. Hevea trees reach their maturity in 15 years but stop producing sufficient sap after being tapped for 25 or 30 years. After this time, the trees are typically cut down and burned; while a new tree is planted in its place. Using these discarded trees for furniture production is a great form of sustainability. The density of Hevea can be compared to white oak or teak making it a very strong and durable material and perfect for furniture construction. Painted in a water-based ZERO VOC paint, the finishing process is painstakingly thorough, with a fine sanding between each coat, creating a flawless finish. The beautiful Island of Martha’s Vineyard was the inspiration for this collection with each furniture piece being named after a place on the Island.
