American Hardwoods

At Fern, we sustainably source lumber from local lumber mills, with the exception of Claro Walnut, which is sourced from sawmills in Northern California and Oregon. Below are the wood choices and finishes we offer. Please note that all options are not available for all pieces.

Leather

We source the finest vegetable-tanned bull hides from one of the top leather tanneries in the world, located in Pennsylvania. Because we source full hides, our pieces celebrate the natural life of the animal, thus the leather may include natural markings such as scarring, stretch and bug bites. We offer the following leather choices. The leather we use is saddle leather and not traditional upholstery leather; therefore, it will build a beautiful patina with continued use over time.

Metals

We offer a variety of metals with hand applied finishes, including sand casted bronze, brass and aluminum.
