A single slab of solid wood is transformed into a one-of-a-kind table.
This video was filmed at Fujiyan Workshop, located in Fukuoka, Japan.
The wood came from a camphor tree that once stood watch over students at a local high school. Though it had to be cut down due to circumstances, it is now being reborn through the hands of a master craftsman—shaped into a truly unique table. A new 100-year story begins from here.
Witness the moment when a tree that has lived for over 200 years is given new life.
