About the Item

Console, planter, Sculpture, wabi-sabi, Decorative item, Rustic, Artwork, 1940's, France; What was once a drinking trough for animals, is now a decorative item that can be placed in an interior in need of a rustic touch. The piece is functional as a console or writing desk but above all is a sculpture. Inspired by the principles of Wabi-sabi, this zen-inspired design focuses on the simplicity that a minimal aesthetic will bring. The details and nuance are where the visual magic lives. In the stillness of the aesthetic, it's all about finding beauty in the imperfect.

Its overwhelming presence adds a unique charm to any room. This side table is recommended as both a display stand and a regular table, showcasing its versatility across various settings. Since ancient times, people have crafted essential tools from local materials to endure harsh natural environments, passing down these skills and tools to future generations, nurturing a cultural way of life. This table embodies that tradition and culture. Tools crafted to survive harsh natural conditions acquire a distinctive flavor over time, reflecting the lifestyles of their users. The tougher the natural environment and the more vulnerable we are, the more profoundly their power is felt.
