Delicate growth rings and the subtle shades drawn by nature. Enjoy the individual character held in every piece of wood.
A life in every ring.
Enju is also written as “延寿”, meaning longevity. In Japan, it has long been cherished as a tree of good fortune. Cut across the trunk, each board preserves the natural beauty of its growth rings, colors, and edges. Here, the life of a tree quietly meets your own.
Fine growth rings, layered one upon another. Before they are a pattern, they are a record of a tree’s life. The spread of the rings, the shades of color, the placement of knots. No two are the same. We preserve these differences in every board, letting the character shaped by nature speak for itself.
Drying takes at least
3years
Good things take time.
Cutting the wood is only the beginning. Drying alone takes at least three years. We give the wood the time it needs. Then we select the pieces in good condition and carefully finish each one by hand. That is why we can only make a limited number at a time.
