Wabi Sabi teak bench celebrating the cracks and crevices and all the other marks that time and loving use have left behind. We added smooth teak minimalist legs to this thick slab plus a light bleach revealing the beautiful wood grain. This bench was handmade in the spirit of Wabi-Sabi, a Japanese philosophy that beauty can be found in imperfection and impermanence. It is a beauty of things modest and humble. A beauty of things unconventional. It is the opposite of vulgarity. The costs of achieving this kind of minimalism are seemingly inconsistent with its mission of aesthetic humility. This kind of luxury is for a select few: The Emperor of Japan had a Wabi garden. Wabi is for people who already have a lot. Own an Andrianna Shamaris original. Andrianna Shamaris. Andrianna Shamaris.
