The story of the walnut

“Beautiful tree. Many uses. Call me.”

An old walnut tree once stood in the garden of my husband's childhood home. When it was felled, we found that note pinned to the trunk. That single tree lives on as lovingly handcrafted stools, tables and boards — its story reshaped, not ended.
