This is something that is difficult to obtain. It is a simple shape, but you can fully appreciate the natural patterns and textures, and the cracks are part of the original design. It has a rich expression, but it is a very easy-to-use design, so I think it is good not only as a stool but also as a side table. It seems that a chemical agent was used, and I think you can tell from the image that it was designed with that in mind, but in reality, it has blended in, and the contrast is not as strong as in the photos. It is a stool where such changes due to aging are also beautiful. Also, it is heavy and very stable. Just having this in the room gives it a strong presence, and although it's not that big, it becomes the main focus. As it was kept as an interior decoration, there is almost no damage and it is very clean. Purchased at cargo in Toyama. Recently, they are rarely sold, and I think designs that are easy to use for daily use are good for beginners.
