Inspired by Nature, Spirit of the West Log Furniture is Earth friendly art. Only choice dead wood is cut & gathered from forests & deserts. Natural - sourced finishes are the mainstay - linseed oil, turpentine, pine tar, bees wax, varnish, shellac. This provides a natural look to the furniture & respects our environment.
 Spirit of the West Log Furniture is designed for comfort, style & strength. Each piece is a totally unique work of art, and as such is branded, numbered, & catalogued by the artisan Norm West. No nails or screws are used. Every piece is painstakingly assembled with glued mortise & tenon joinery, then enhanced by a hardwood dowel through each joint.
Various special woods of B.C. are used, including Diamond Willow, Juniper, & Sage Wood. Birch,  Pine, Spruce, Douglas Fir, & Burls are also incorporated, especially aged & weathered wood for more character.
