About the Artwork
A string chamfered octagonal low table with recessed corners made of red sandalwood.
It took 5 years to create this piece as I divided the table into 8 parts and hollowed out each of the frames as one piece. As I needed a 45 cm wide table top, I used very valuable red sandalwood.
Finished with wiped urushi.

Techniques Used
Wood joinery
In wood joinery (sashimono), wood boards are cut into panels with care to how the grain patterns will fit together in the final piece. The wooden panels are then cut or carved to create interlocking joints. These joints, which are the key feature of wood joinery, make it possible to connect boards at right angles to produce boxes and other articles. Wood joinery is assembled without the use of nails or any other metal hardware.
