Little Bear Fire No-8
Little Bear Fire Black Walnut Hall Table
Urban Wood New Mexico
Crafted by Micah A. Daboub
This one-of-a-kind hall table was crafted from black walnut salvaged from the Little Bear Fire (2012), located in Ruidoso, New Mexico.
The tree is estimated to have been approximately 150–180 years old, having stood through generations before being lost to wildfire. This piece was cut from the same slab as a longer hall table, preserving more of the original tree in functional sculptural form.
Species: Black Walnut
Scientific Name: Juglans nigra
Dimensions:
65" L × 10" W × 3" T
Estimated Carbon Stored:
Approximately 40–50 pounds of CO₂ equivalent retained within this piece
Rather than being burned or mulched, this carbon remains stored within the wood—extending the life of the tree’s environmental contribution.
Each piece from Urban Wood New Mexico is individually built to preserve not just material, but history, place, and time.
