In November of 2007 our co-founder, Ben (right), crafted turkey feather bow ties for the groomsmen in his wedding. Five years after the wedding, one of those groomsmen, Jeff (left), saw an opportunity in what Ben had created and the two partnered together to launch Brackish. <br><br> For the next several years, Ben and Jeff worked together to scale the growth of Brackish while staying true to the very first core value of the company: respectfully repurposing the beauty of nature. <br><br> Brackish was born out of Jeff's apartment on Rutledge Avenue and has since grown into a much larger design studio across the Ashley River in Charleston, SC.
