Java Lounge Chair |  “An exceptionally comfortable piece, the Java chair is made of reclaimed Peroba Rosa wood molded laminates. The base is made out of iron and wood at the ends, resulting in a uniform and strong appearance. A combination of rustic and clean designs, this piece is a representation of Motta’s progression in his sophisticated yet laidback attitude.”

Rustic Bed | “Branches are meticulously cut and positioned by hand by our skilled craftsmen to create the intricate patterns on the headboard of this majestic Rustic Bed, as well as its detailed bedposts, finials, and decorative rail – a masterpiece of design and craftsmanship.”

Walnut Slab Desk | “Many of my desks have secret compartments, antique accessories, accent lights and reading/writing lights. I envision my desks to be someone’s favorite place to journal, write letters, read, conduct business and reflect upon the day.” 

Asturias Armchair | “The Asturias armchair is a bold option with a sophisticated, rustic. This line of furniture uses reclaimed and demolition wood. A versatile piece, this armchair is suitable for both indoor and outdoor spaces.”
