Hand-crafted from solid wood, the piece showcases beautiful grain and deep, lustrous warmth.

Unlike mass-produced stands, this cradle has been finished using traditional methods: a hand-rubbed, food-safe oil followed by a natural beeswax polish. This process creates a soft-to-the-touch, low-sheen patina that protects the timber while allowing the organic beauty of the wood to remain the focal point. Designed for prominence, its substantial scale makes it an ideal centerpiece for a large coffee table, a library gallery, or a grand entryway console. See less
