Respect the trees and let their individuality guide you...
A completely different look emerges when the wood is carved.
Deep colors, soft colors, mottled colors, bright colors...
There are too many to list.
Even if it is the same type of tree,
There are as many different grain patterns as there are people.
They create ring holders, candle holders, flower vases and more, making the most of each individual's individuality.
This piece is a horse chestnut tree.
Horse chestnut, a tree native to Japan, has long been popular as a material for furniture and construction.
The grain of horse chestnut is characterized by its rich color palette, with shiny, sparkling areas, calm white areas, and dark areas with a reddish tint all mixed together under the influence of the natural environment, so no two pieces are the same.
This ring holder has a deliberately simple design that makes the most of the shine of the wood grain and its wavy pattern.
You can easily store it away when you want to temporarily remove it while washing dishes or taking a bath, or when you want to change it depending on your mood.
Not only is it functional, but its sophisticated and stylish appearance also makes it blend in with the interior.
This is a piece that will gently support you and lend you a hand as you spend your days feeling comfortable.

Heikichi Otsuka
Fascinated by the unique character and warmth of each piece of wood, he taught himself how to work with wood.
Heikichi Otsuka became a woodworker.
"When I create a piece, I am particularly conscious of checking the top and bottom.
If you make a mistake, you will be going against trees that have lived for decades or even centuries.
When I create, I always have a sense of gratitude towards the trees, and it's a constant process of trial and error to find the best way to bring out the unique characteristics of each individual tree."
Otsuka respects, cherishes and is grateful for the wood that has found its way to him over the years, and he devotes himself every day to creating works that convey the warmth and beauty of wood.
Otsuka respects the individuality of the wood he encounters, turning it on a lathe and shaping it as he is guided by that individuality. His works exude warmth and sincerity towards wood.
These pieces are practical yet also add a touch of elegance to your room's interior.
