Vanity Created from Old Growth Redwood, with stone inlay across the front…
A gorgeous burl slab was used for the top, backsplash and front, with a slight contrast using straighter grain Redwood for the carved legs…
This was a custom order, to fit into a small “powder room”...(The client is installing a blown glass sink on the top.) We wanted a “Contemporary rustic” look, and I think it came together well!

Joni that is really outstanding. What kind of stone do you use for your inlay? I ave some really gorgeous walnut that I plan to use for a bar and was considering using some of the”inlace” products but your use of stone is really striking.

You can use whatever stone you like for inlay…I generally choose based on color…alabaster and Onyx are a nice choice…
Finishes, we generally use Mohawk catalyzed lacquer…acid and water resistant…

Don’t let them cut a hole in it! They should just place it someplace and look at it. It is great!

Hi Joni
I really love the grain in the base. How is the stone prepaired and put in the wood? Thanks for posting.

Beautiful work Joni. I agree that it would be a shame to cut into the top but it does belong to your client. I really love the edge treatments and the inlay.
Wonderful post.

Now that’s a hunk of wood. It tells a story, and you tell it so well.
