My Grandfather’s Nails
“One man’s trash is another man’s treasure” is no cliché in Paul Tuter’s world. A world of moldings, metal fittings, bed frames, table legs & solid vintage doors. Each piece & part that is found perhaps on a roadside, estate sale or dropped off by a fellow collector – wears its weathered past proudly.
Blessed with the vision to see the potential amongst the pieces … a composition forms & Paul creates. Battered, vintage, forgotten objects become artful, functional furniture. Architectural pieces may adorn a custom bed or reclaimed old growth lumber becomes a farm table that will host decades of family dinners.
My Grandfather’s Nail’s is a living & loving testimony to Paul’s grandfather & his tutelage. Whether you acquire a mantle or cupboard from a select NW store, or commission Paul to build a piece you’ve been dreaming of … there’s one common bond that unites each unique piece: A single nail is hammered into place. His signature from “My Grandfather’s Nail’s.”
