Employing steam bending and Shou Sugi Ban (焼杉板) techniques, this work celebrates the dexterity of fine timber.

The open-grain texture of the exterior is achieved by scrubbing and scorching. In contrast, the Oak backing is lightly bleached to reveal a subtle white grain. Emotional connection is ensured by the presence of the maker’s mark, inspiring awe, and interest.

Material: Oak, Shou Sugi Ban Oak & Bleached Oak
