High on the plateau
Highlands is a small Macon County town, one of the highest in the eastern United States, surrounded by the Nantahala National Forest. The Cullasaja River runs west from town past Bridal Veil Falls and Dry Falls along US 64, and Main Street stays busy through the summer season.
Homes here range from historic cottages to large mountain houses. Both call for furniture that feels at home with the woods outside, which is what live-edge slabs do best. A river table with a clear or smoky resin channel can suggest a mountain stream without shouting.
The drive up
The routed drive from our shop runs north on US 441 through the Georgia mountains, then climbs NC 106 into Highlands, about 104 miles in all. It is close enough that we can schedule a mountain delivery run, and Highlands owners can stop at the Statham gallery when traveling to or from Atlanta.

- Resin river tables: Clear or smoky epoxy channels that read like a creek.
