“Oak Village Co., Ltd. was established in 1974 as a furniture crafting company in the heavily wooded area of Takayama in Gifu, Japan where woodworking has flourished for over 1,300 years. Their studio emphasises products made only from local trees by using traditional Japanese wood crafting techniques. Made exclusively from local wild tree wood, their products were designed by Japanese artists with the collaborative efforts of Oak Village.”
Oak Village furniture and wood products are made of natural solid wood, so there are individual differences in grain and colour. Regarding the size, due to the nature of natural solid wood, there may be changes due to expansion and contraction depending on the indoor environment such as humidity and drying. Also, please understand that colour shades and tree nodes may be seen depending on the tree.
