Description
Each piece in this stylish collection has been hand carved on a very special species of wood: Paulownia. This wood can be traced back to 200 A.D. when, in Asia, a seedling was planted celebrating the birth of a daughter. At the time of her marriage, the tree was cut down and made into a prized wedding chest. They also believed that when the tree was planted close to the house that the Pheonix would come and bring them good luck. Paulownia wood is an extraordinary material and is today noted for its strength in relationship to its light weight.
