Sculptural vessel handbuilt by wood craftsman Imada Tomoyuki in the island of Amami, Oshima.
Taken from trees that have either fallen from a storm or left on the roadside to be discarded, they're given a second life by Imada-san as beautiful objects. “I want you to understand and be attached to the individuality of the natural tree. I create objects using materials that return to the earth even after it has been used for a long time.”
The Saturn Vessel takes its form from its namesake ringed planet. We love this piece displayed simply as a beautiful object on top of books or on a console.
DIMENSIONS: Approximately 25cm (H) x 13cm (W) x 12cm (D)
