Looking for unique furniture in the Pacific NW.
My SO and I are in the market for a dining room table/chairs and I don't want it to be a run of the mill piece. I am looking for things like salvaged/entombed wood, antiques anything that can make it more one of a kind and less assembly line.
I am in based Portland but I am totally willing to travel to view furniture in Seattle or even Bosie, if need be.
I have gone to ECO PDX and liked what I saw but the tables were mostly too large as I am looking for something that can seat between 4 and 8 folks.
Thanks!

Check out Cargo (380 NW 13th Avenue) which has very cool stuff imported from Asia, Mexico, and many other places, I'm sure. It's a huge store and most of the furniture is upstairs.

Sorry, my Cargo link should have gone to the main reviews for the store.

The Joinery, in/near Sellwood. Mother Goose sells really beautiful [expensive] wood furniture, too.

If you don't have to see it before you buy it, DP Fletcher has interesting pieces, however they are based in Arizona in the US.
A YouTube video of one here: DB Fletcher table
They aren't salvaged wood or antiques, but they're definitely one-of-a-kind.

This may not be your style at all, but Pacific Rim Log Furniture in Woodland, Wash., has some really neat hand-made tables. They're about 22 miles north of Portland. I used to live across the street from the place. It's a smallish family business, and they're really nice.
