Crafted from a fallen Maple Tree in Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park, this stool embodies the past, present, and future of conservation. Its Maple wood construction pays homage to the land's history, while beaded legs, inspired by Abenaki wampum beads, connect to Native Indian traditions. A tangible narrative of time and heritage.
