As the fourth generation of "Oyanagi Tansu", a long- established manufacturer for 100 years, Norikazu Oyanagi began training as a wood craftsman at the age of 19. In 2014, he became the youngest person to be certified as a traditional craftsman for the Echizen-tansu (traditional chest). While carrying on the traditions and craftsmanship handed down from one generation to another, he pursues unconventional and creative craftsmanship utilizing materials like wood, iron and lacquer. 

• Paulownia tends to turn black on the surface when exposed to moisture (this is not a problem in use). To reduce discoloration, please refrain from placing the cabinet in a humid place and do not allow it to get wet. In case it gets wet, wipe if off with a cloth and let it dry naturally. 
• Sweat also tends to stain so please be careful when handling it. 
• As paulownia is a softer type of wood, it can be easily scratched. Please be careful not to place hard, sharp or rough objects on it. 
• Please refrain from using it in direct sunlight. It may cause cracks due to heat or tanning. 
• As these are handmade products, each piece will look slightly different.
