Wood Nerikomi Cabinetry
by Trey Jones, USA

Made entirely from reclaimed wood, the Nerikomi series is the result of the artist’s interest in finding purpose for the large quantity of high-quality waste wood produced by cabinetmakers. Typically unusable, Trey has given the wood new life by painstaking assembling the small offcut sections into elaborate patterns created by exposing the cut ends that cabinetmakers commonly go to great lengths to conceal. The forms of Trey's Nerikomi series are driven by the interplay of flat, broad areas that showcase the elaborate patterns, and rounded elements that reveal the depth of the material being carved away, distinguishing it from more common veneer work. Each work in the Nerikomi series is unique and we invite inquiries for custom commissions. Examples below may be ordered in custom dimensions, colors and patterns (swatches and patterns below). Average lead time 4-8 weeks + scheduling.
