Reid Harris, owner of Northern Edge Craftworks, creates live-edge tables, benches, and other furnishings using locally sourced, sustainable wood. On the underside of each piece, he even stamps the GPS location where the tree was harvested. A show of his work will be up at The Canvas at REACH until July 26. This table incorporates live edge covered by glass, which is reflecting a piece of art by Abe Wylie. Mary Catharine Martin | Capital City Weekly
