George Nakashima for George Nakashima Studio, sideboard, American black walnut, pandanus cloth, United States, 1983. With its sturdy form, thoughtful material choices, and refined joinery, this custom-made cabinet (1983) exemplifies George Nakashima’s distinctive approach and masterful craftsmanship. Notably, the walnut itself is an integral part of the design – the wood's natural grain and deep warm color add to its natural appeal. The vertically gridded doors are backed with pandanus cloth, woven from a Southeast Asian palm. During this period, New Hope formed the home port for many great designers such as Frank Lloyd Powell and Paul Evans.
