Every custom vanity starts long before the first coat of finish goes on. It begins with carefully hand-selecting each piece of timber to ensure the grain, colour, and character flow naturally from board to board when joined together.
For this 1200mm Blackbutt vanity, our client wanted a bold, solid-looking piece with plenty of presence. To achieve that, we increased the timber thickness throughout the design, creating substantial 30mm sides and a 26mm drawer fronts. These details might seem subtle on paper, but they make a huge difference to the overall feel of the finished vanity.
At this stage, the timber has been jointed together and any natural voids have been filled with resin, preserving the character of the timber while creating a smooth, durable surface. Right now, it may look like a collection of timber panels, but this is where every great custom piece begins.
Over the coming weeks, you'll see this Blackbutt vanity transform from raw timber into a handcrafted centrepiece, showcasing the beauty that only solid timber can provide.
Stay tuned as this one starts to come to life. ✨
