This product is reminiscent of the spirit of "wabi-sabi", a Japanese philosophy that finds beauty in imperfection and impermanence.
It is a modest, humble, unconventional beauty that is the opposite of vulgarity.
This is a very rare piece of furniture that is unlike any other.
It weighs 30 kg.
Since ancient times, people have created and passed down the necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the struggle with harsh nature, and have cultivated a living culture.
Tools acquire character over the years and reflect the lives of people.
The harsher the natural environment and the weaker we are, the stronger the power of our tools.
In an age where cheap, disposable products are encouraged, the act of repeatedly tinkering with and remaking the things around us opens up new worlds.
Based on this philosophy, we carefully select and collect beautiful, strong, and one-of-a-kind Japanese antiques.
