Bloom Home Inc. Frieda Island Counter

Because the Frieda Island Counter uses hand-selected, authentic materials and extensive manual craftsmanship, every piece is truly one-of-a-kind. You can expect natural variations in wood grain, texture, and the specific character of the weathered finish, which is intentional and part of the design.

The piece features a natural wax finish. While this provides a beautiful, matte aesthetic, it is less resistant to spills and heat than a heavy polyurethane coating. We recommend using coasters and trivets to protect the surface and wiping up spills immediately to maintain the wood's integrity.

The 23-inch clearance is designed for storage rather than seating. While you might be able to tuck very low-profile stools underneath, this island is primarily built as a workspace and storage unit, not a dining table with knee space.

Given the use of authentic, solid materials, this is a substantial piece of furniture. It typically arrives fully assembled or with minimal setup required, but due to its weight and size, we strongly recommend having two people available to help position it in your kitchen.

Yes, the generous 79-inch width provides ample workspace for meal prep. However, because it has a natural wax finish, we recommend using a dedicated cutting board rather than chopping directly on the wood surface to prevent damage to the finish and keep the wood sanitary.
