We turned this ancient three inch thick wood top, originally used to weave intricate baskets, into a one of a kind side table. We added the solid teak wood sculptural base and finished in a translucent grey revealing the beautiful wood grain. It’s all in the details. This side table was hand made 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.
