Shesham is a fast-growing, eco-friendly hardwood, sourced from sustainable, government managed plantations.

When picking out the right piece of furniture for your place, make sure that it's as functional as it is good looking. The Alchemy stool by CB2, Crate & Barrel's kid brother store, offers a modern and masculine take the classic laboratory stool. Crafted from pewter-dipped iron, the industrial-styled stool features a solid shesham wood
seat that's nearly 15 inches in diameter.  Meaning it
can easily work as a bedside table or end table next to the sofa or your favorite club chair. Of course, you could also use it as something to sit on too. $130, at CB2.
