About the Item
A Japanese antique wooden block dating from the 1950s–1960s.
Carved from a solid mass of wood, the piece has a quiet sculptural presence—its simple square form lending itself naturally to artistic or display use.
Whether supporting a ceramic vessel, elevating a small sculpture, or serving as a minimal stand within a curated vignette, it offers a grounded, understated platform that complements rather than overpowers the objects placed upon it.
The wood has aged with time, developing a soft, muted surface that reflects years of natural change.
At 7.4 kg, the block has a reassuring weight, allowing it to sit firmly in place while still being manageable to move and reposition as needed.
Additional antique furniture and decorative objects sourced from across Japan are also available upon request.
