The spirit of "Wabi-sabi," the Japanese idea of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence, can be felt in this piece.

It weighs 19 kg.
Since ancient times, people have created and inherited necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the severe struggle against nature, and have nurtured a lifestyle culture.
Through long use, they accumulate flavor and reflect a person's way of life.
The more severe the natural environment and the weaker the human being, the stronger the power of tools becomes.
In today's world, where cheap and disposable products are encouraged, the act of repeatedly modifying and re-creating the things around us opens up a new world.
With this philosophy in mind, we carefully select and collect Japanese antiques that are beautiful, powerful, and unique.
