Made to order ( 7 months )
Shaker's oval box is a beautiful storage box with meticulous attention to detail and finish.
The Shakers, who flourished in America in the 18th century, were self-sufficient in even producing furniture and household items, based on their teachings that emphasized discipline and hard work. The everyday items they made during their communal lives were both functional and beautiful, with no unnecessary elements.
This masterpiece was created by Mr. Okuno, who has a workshop in Noto, Ishikawa Prefecture, and faithfully follows the production process of the Shaker oval box, from the pattern to the copper nails and other parts.
