Yard Sale Project, Pure Black Wavy Front Dresser, UK, 2024

Creator: Yard Sale Project
Offered by: Todd Merrill Studio

Description
Todd Merrill Studio began representing Ian Spencer as one half of design duo Yard Sale Project in 2011. Spencer’s one-of-a-kind furniture reflects his masterful craftsmanship and fresh approach to contemporary design. His design ideas are informed by materials and processes, an ethic that starts from any given material, and what it can be used for.

The hand-carved standing cabinet is hand-carved with wavy lines giving way to deep depressions that emphasize the natural imperfections and grain of the wood. Like other works in Spencer’s Pure Black series that work is finished using the shou-sugi-ban method, an ancient Japanese finishing technique that preserves wood by charring it with fire. In addition to being aesthetically striking and elegant, the finishing technique renders the wood rot, pest, water, UV, and fire resistant.
