SENTIENT is a New York City based design and manufacturing

company. We have created an acclaimed collection of original,

contemporary and timeless furniture items. Additionally at

and fabricate all of our own ideas and

products. Our ideas and designs have two

main influences. Firstly, the wide choice and

availability of sustainable hardwoods from

forests of the North East and Midwest of the

United States and secondly the decades of

experience we have from making bespoke

furniture for the New York City marketplace.

Whether it’s a three legged stool for a coffee

shop or case goods installations for a 500

room hotel our designers and fabricators

have done it all.

Caribou Lounge

An original design statement from SENTIENT combining luxurious fur with American black walnut.

The Caribou lounge chair uses Coyote fur which is soft and deep and has wide variation of colors and

tones. The structure floats in a solid American black walnut frame which contrasts assuredly with the

irregular shapes and variations of the fur. It is an iconic piece of furniture for use any setting.

Luxor Credenza

An Elegant Credenza with Live-Edge Legs

We like to mix different colors and

materials. Sometimes it works and

works really well. This is one of those

moments. A high gloss black credenza

with leather pulls. The angled sides are

unusual in themselves but to add to

that idea we decided to attach live -dge

slabs to outside of the structure. The

final composition is a delicate floating

combination of manmade laminates

and timeless live-edge slabs.

The SENTIENT New Old dresser would look great in a Park Avenue apartment and at the same time

also look great in chic Tribeca boutique hotel. It can be made using a variety of materials and finishes.

rectilinear lines of the external structure with a striking oval shaped multi–functional internal space.

types of objects. The SENTIENT Orbit collection is shown using ambrosia maple with its distinctive

Nersi Sofa

An Assured Sofa with Soft Curves Upholstered from Top to Bottom

This is a sophisticated piece of upholstered furniture that is very gentle and pleasing to the

eye. Under that delicate pallet is a complicated structure requiring experience and master

craftsmanship in carpentry and upholstery, gained by many years supplying the New York and

Tristate area custom furniture markets.

The SENTIENT Furniture Long Wool sofa is so much more than a sofa. It is as much a superb piece

of design as a wonderful piece of art. The upholstery is long wool from the sheep of Iceland. The

structure is made using reclaimed American oak boards showing nail holes, checking and other

spectacular characteristics. The combination of the wild and chaotic Icelandic long wool upholstery

with the warm honey colors of the timeless reclaimed oak make the SENTIENT Long Wool sofa truly

unique. Dimensions 96” x 42” x 40”

Sapience Chair & Bench

The SENTIENT Sapience Chair is an elegant geometric structure. This comfortable chair has

two diamond shaped vertical supports joined by a clean horizontal seat and an angled back

rest. Remarkably even though the chair is comprised entirely from geometric shapes it has a

sense of character and rhythm such that the end result is as much an elegant sculpture as a

geometric structure. As the name suggests, the Sapience chair is the result of many years of

experience and wisdom! It is also available as a bench.

The Sapience collection is made from solid woods and wood veneers. It is available in a variety

of hardwoods and finishes and also has a variety of upholstery options

Conceive Design and Create

At SENTIENT we are continually creating and developing

our designs and products. Whether its a traditional design

or an entirely new idea we are capable of conceiving,

designing and creating. Thats is what we are all about.

American Chair

Dry some some American black walnut and hard maple

boards. Hand carve the seat and backrest. Turn some

walnut and maple spindles on the lathe. Join them all

together and to create a beautiful American Chair.

The SENTIENT Locust Wood chair maybe

design by serendipity as much as any other

creative method. Regardless, we found a

unique use for a bias cut locust wood slab

creating the back and leg of a live-edge chair.

Adding the curved seat and splayed and

tapered legs has resulted in an eye catching

conversation piece.

Live-Edge

SENTIENT’s live-edge tables and other

designs are made using sustainably sourced

American black walnut, maple, figured

maple, hard maple, spalted maple, cherry,

white oak, oak and other hardwoods.

Finishes are applied with care to provide

protective coatings and also to accentuate

the many colors, grain patterns and effects

found in many of these wood species.

We use wood that has been air dried

followed up with kiln drying. Depending

on the size and thickness of the wood

sometimes the drying process may have

taken up to three years from the time the

tree was felled until the wood is ready to be

worked on our benches.

Colorado Live-Edge Table

A Contemporary Modern Table Including The Timelessness of A Live-Edge Slab

The colors and design of the SENTIENT Colorado table

suggest the Southwest United States. The glass–filled

gap between the inverted edges of a live-edge spalted

maple slab suggest a great river and the darkened

V -shaped legs speak of a canyon. There are oversized

butterfly leg connectors tying the minimalist leg

design that is capable of supporting a table of 10 feet

or more in length. This table is also available in walnut

or other hardwoods on request.

Single Slab Live-Edge Table

The Contemporary And Timeless Single Slab Live-Edge Table

The SENTIENT Single Slab live-edge table is made

using a single cut or slice from the trunk of the

tree. The lion’s share of the work to produce a

stunning American black walnut live-edge table

has been undertaken by nature. The colors, grains

and other spectacular characteristics have been

formed through the decades and centuries of

growth. Each tree and each live-edge table is not

only beautiful but is also unique.

Center Joined Walnut Live-Edge Table

The SENTIENT Center Joined walnut live-edge

table is made by attaching two matching walnut

slabs from the same wood stand with a tight

center join. This type of table top provides greater

flexibility to create a live-edge table in a specific

size and/or shape. Like the single slab style, each

center joined table is unique.

MB (Multiple Board) Walnut Live-Edge Table

The SENTIENT MB (Multiple Boards) walnut live-

edge table is made by inserting three or more hand

picked solid walnut boards between solid live-

edges. This table is created and fabricated at the

same high level of quality and attention to detail

and is also available with the same leg and other

choices as the single slab and center join tables.

A Plethora of Table Styles

At SENTIENT, we supply a wide variety of styles and designs

other than live-edge. They can be circular, and we have many

pedestal options, or rectangular tables made from oak, maple,

cherry and many more wood species. Additionally SENTIENT

has supplied many restaurants with a variety of dining tables.

We also provide may corporations with large conference

tables including electrical and audio visual outlets and other

special requirements.

SENTIENT Table Legs and Bases

SENTIENT has designed and created an exclusive collection of table legs that work with all table top

choices. They are available in a variety of finishes and can be adapted to counter and bar top heights.

Split Credenza

The SENTIENT Split Credenza is a counter intuitive conversational design. As can be seen the

cedar slab has extremely striking colors and effects, almost art–like with heavy brush strokes.

The doors are created to deliberately overwhelm the rest of the piece which turns out to be

a spacious credenza for AV equipment or other storage items. The carcass is a rich copper

powder infused color.

Live-Edge Coffee Table

Coffee tables are a fun and sought after item. We have conceived and fabricated a wide variety of

coffee tables using many different materials, shapes and styles. At SENTIENT we can produce a coffee

table using the customers designs or alternatively we can recommend and create a coffee table that

may be sculptural or functional and often both!

Zora Coffee Table

The SENTIENT Zora coffee table is a modernistic design combining a bias cut locust slab on a white

cantilevered base. We love timelessness, and in the Zora coffee table the clock may be pointed to the

future at some distant galaxy!

Foothills TV Console

The SENTIENT Foothills console is a design that combines a strong reassuring walnut live-edge slab

supporting a tempered glass shelf. The geometric columns carrying the glass shelf combined with

the natural wood base make this both contemporary and timeless at the same time.
