About this work
Its fluid natural contours and fine, mellow wood grain are entirely shaped by time, embodying the primal vitality and distinctive aesthetic texture wrought by nature’s extraordinary craftsmanship. It resembles a puppy stretching out its forepaw to greet you, a charming seal, and a steed leaping out from the sea. After centuries of aging, once the decayed bark is removed, the heartwood reveals a stunning bronze hue — a metallic luster forged by the earth over thousands of years. The rotten outer bark returns to dust, while the resilient heartwood gains new life through the tempering of time.
