Grapevine

One of the most complex staircases we have ever made. The project consists primarily of two free-standing spiral staircases stacked on top of each other, with custom sapele windsor profile railing and our signature ferrum balustrade system. Special features include solid jatoba treads, hand-carved descending volutes and rail transitions, and two custom turned newel posts.
