An extraordinary vintage Japanese solid timber tabletop screen (Tsuitate / Okidoko Accent Screen), organic sculpture carved from a thick cross-section of highly figured natural edge timber.
Artisanal Craftsmanship & Natural Aesthetics:
Substantial 32 kg Solid Timber: Weighing an impressive 32 kg, this piece boasts incredible density and presence, highlighting the exceptional quality of old-growth Japanese timber.
Dramatic Natural Edge & Swirling Grain:
Showcases vivid, dense annual ring patterns with rich warm-amber tones and an organic sculptural silhouette created by nature.
Natural Cavity & Chigiri Joinery:
Features a natural central cavity (Uro) stabilized by traditional butterfly joint keys (Chigiri), highlighting the historic Japanese philosophy of finding art in natural wood character (Wabi-Sabi).
Solid Feet Bases:
