About the Item

This coffee table was made in an old Japanese mortar. Crafted from zelkova wood, it is believed to have been hand-carved using tools. Finished by hand, rather than by machine, its uneven appearance exudes a unique beauty. The color fades over time, giving it a primitive appearance that expresses the beauty of natural change. It can also be used as a coffee table, display stand, or stool. Its simple form adds a primitive beauty to any space, creating a serene, beautiful silhouette. There is a chip on the side, but this does not affect use. Please see the photos for details. Weight: 50kg
