Ember Side Table

Blackened and quiet, a small sculptural presence for the corner of a room. The charred wood holds the light instead of throwing it back. The form is simple and sure. A squared top with softly rounded corners rests on a single tapered base that narrows as it falls to the floor, weight and lightness held in the same breath. The surface is charred by hand in the Shou Sugi Ban tradition, an ancient Japanese method of burning wood to strengthen and preserve it, and the fire brings the grain forward rather than hiding it. Deep matte black, warm under your hand, a texture that asks to be touched. Picture it beside the bed or at the end of the sofa. A book set down, a candle burning low, a glass of water in the dark, the small still life of your evenings collecting on top. It can be a side table, a pedestal for a single beautiful object, or a quiet anchor wherever a room needs a little weight. Wood only deepens with the years, and the charred finish wears its life well. Let it stand alone and be exactly what it is. It settles into a corner like it has always been there.
