About the Item

This is a low table that combines old Japanese trees. The detailed tree species of the upper board is unknown, but it is considered to be katsura wood, and the color has become darker due to aging, and it has changed to a natural expression. It is a primitive appearance that expresses the beauty of natural change. The base was originally an old wooden box, and cedar was used. Since the wooden box is divided into two, it can be installed by changing the position of the legs as two bases. ( Please note that depending on how the legs are placed, there will be wobble) Due to the use on the side of the hearth for a long time, it turns black with soot, and it is a beautiful black color with a matte texture. Depending on how the legs are placed, space is created on the base, and light shines in to create a beautiful silhouette. The top plate is wide and can also be used as a sofa table. With a simple shape, you can add beauty through natural changes to the space and create a primitive and beautiful silhouette. ※Please fine-tune the position of the legs and place the top board so that there is less wobbling.
