Artist: Masaru Kawai
Born in 1979, Gifu Prefecture, Masaru Kawai was originally an architect. However, having a deep interest in the 100-year-old Japanese aesthetics centred around nature, he decided to become a woodworker, receiving his training at Oak Village in Hida, Gifu Prefecture.
To use this product safely and comfortably, please follow the instructions below:
- Avoid direct sunlight and strong lighting as much as possible. Rapid drying may cause cracks and warpage.
- If cleaning is required, wash both sides with water, wipe off the moisture with a cloth, and dry in a well-ventilated shade so that both sides can dry at the same time. It is important to have the same drying conditions for both the front and back.
- Do not leave it out for a long time (more than a few days). Constant exposure to outside air on only either sides will cause warpage. After use, it is recommended to put it in a box or store it upright.
- As these are handmade products, each piece will look slightly different.
