Petrified Wood Tables and Live Edge Furniture by Pierre Mason

At Pierre Mason, we craft furniture from petrified wood slabs and live-edge slices, honoring each material’s natural form and elevating it through clean, sculptural design.

Naturally transformed over millennia, petrified wood preserves the structure of ancient trees in stone. Rich in pattern and texture, it offers a refined surface for statement pieces that feel grounded, artistic, and timeless.

 

 

What Makes Petrified Wood Furniture Unique

Every piece of petrified wood tells a story. The wood’s structure is preserved and mineralized, resulting in a dense material that still carries the warmth and character of its organic origin.


At Pierre Mason, we work with both natural petrified wood slabs and live edge pieces, each selected for its striking visual quality and surface integrity. Whether polished or matte, every table and surface is crafted from authentic material with rich movement, color, and character.

Why Interior Designers Choose Petrified Wood Tables

Petrified wood is one of the most versatile and visually dynamic materials in custom furniture. Designers value it for its ability to:

 

  • - Ground a modern space with organic texture
  • - Introduce warmth without compromising elegance
  • - Act as a sculptural focal point in both neutral and bold interiors

 

This material pairs naturally with metal, velvet, concrete, or glass. Whether the setting is coastal, industrial, or contemporary, petrified wood adapts without losing its voice.

Our Approach to Custom Petrified Wood Design

Each piece at Pierre Mason is made to order. We do not carry ready-to-ship stock. Instead, we begin with your space, your vision, and our hand-selected material inventory.

 

Our process includes:

  • - Sourcing slabs and live edge pieces based on visual appeal and integrity
  • - Finishing each surface by hand, whether with a matte seal or polished sheen
  • - Pairing the stone with clean-lined bases or using it as a stand-alone surface

 

We craft mini tables, coffee tables, console tables, and custom commissions with a focus on timeless form and sculptural balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

What is petrified wood furniture?

Petrified wood furniture is made from fossilized wood that has naturally hardened into stone over time. Each piece is unique in texture and color, making it ideal for statement tables, consoles, and sculptural accents.


 

Is petrified wood durable enough for everyday use?

Yes. Petrified wood is remarkably strong and dense, similar in hardness to quartz or granite. It holds up far better than typical hardwoods or soft stones like marble when it comes to resisting scratches, heat, and daily wear. When properly finished and sealed, it performs exceptionally well as a coffee or side table surface, offering both durability and refined natural beauty.


 

Do you carry inventory, or is everything made to order?

All pieces are made to order. We begin with your needs and work with available slabs to craft each design specifically for your space.
