Have you ever seen white oak look like this?

This tree’s heart was gone, completely decomposed in the core. The new growth that followed is what created the magic in its original grain characteristics.

The centre had rotted away, completely void from decay. The aftermath of the trauma is where lies the magic. Just like where darkness meets light, and rain converges with sunshine. The slabs that surrounded the damaged core capture a story of resiliency. As the grain turned inward and wrapped around the void, it created one of a kind figures and spalt patterns. That’s what you’re seeing here, and it’s far from typical in white oak. It’s the injury/illness that gave this tree all its character.

At Rubenovitch Furnishings & Co., we seek out those rare moments of transformation and characteristics in trees.

In this piece, you’re seeing figured grain + spalt and the story of the tree’s transformation.

We are humbled to have the fortune to have a handful of pieces from this tree.

At Rubenovitch Furnishings & Co., we don’t just source wood, we curate it. We seek those specimens where adversity sparked beauty, where nature’s trauma gave way to something extraordinary.

I had the pleasure of helping Daniel, a local woodworker move lumber he’d milled right from his own property. There’s something about cracking open a raw log and finding the story of its place written in the grain.

He had a Doug Fir log and several maple logs that had fallen years ago. Daniel induced spalting by raising the maple logs off the ground, leaving them outside and letting nature do its work.

When we first dropped the logs off, we weren’t sure what kind of material we’d get, but jeez, were we pleasantly surprised! The boards had minimal cracks/bark inclusions/knots, clean faces, yielded wide cuts, and the spalt didn’t go too far and rot. Maple can take on all sorts of hues depending on its environment, and these pieces had some truly unique colors and character.

We stacked everything into his diy custom kiln, a setup with fans, a little heater, and a dehumidifier. Daniel figures they’ll be ready in a few months. That sounded quick to me at first, but after all those years of air-drying outside, it makes sense.

I look forward to getting my hands on some of the stock and cant wait to see what these beauties will be used for.

The apres 5 at was 🤌.

Thank you for the introduction to Caramaba to provide the signage for & events.

The food was so good. Quattro’s meatball and Lorette’s Quebec style inspired pates. You can’t go wrong with Caramba’s pizza. They been doing it since 1995.

Congrats on the anniversary and bringing warmth to the Whistler community for just about 3 decades.

Pleasure connecting with fellow businesses and talking shop.

Relieved to have this table delivered to a Vancouver office 4 floors up. Happy I wasn’t the one carrying the 900 lbs up the stairs. Originally this heart slab was extremely cracked up, but lots of time went into gluing and epoxying it to stabilize it and bring it all back to life.

Lenny was an absolute pleasure to work with. He took my original vision for a custom bed and created something so beyond my expectations. The quality and thoughtfulness of design and functionality were top notch. The final product is so special to me and has a tremendous amount of meaning being from a local craftsman and made from a local wood. My bed is a piece that I will l cherish for years to come. I can’t recommend Lenny enough if you’re looking for a custom furniture. ⁃ Kristal
