DESCRIPTION

Beautiful coffee table or bench hand carved from a single block of wood from Mali. The wood is tough, dense and very durable. There is a fine carving around the side and tiny triangle cut outs on the top edge. Shown with carved cone style legs. We only source the best. This one is a beauty. Full dimensions; 80” wide. The depth varies from 16.5” x center 14” to 13” deep x 11” high. Circa 1950

This coffee table or bench 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.
