Cherry Wood Trinket Dish

Crafted from cherry wood and finished with walnut oil, this small dish highlights the natural warmth and grain of the wood.

I fell in love with it the moment I saw it in Akira Shoji's workshop. Shaped like a chestnut and small enough to rest in the palm of your hand, it has a quiet charm that is difficult to resist. It showcases the careful handwork of Kyoto woodworker Akira Shoji. Each carving mark reflects the attention and craftsmanship behind the piece, giving it a quiet presence and unique character.

Perfect for holding jewelry, small keepsakes, or serving a sweet treat alongside tea, it is a simple object that brings a sense of warmth and delight to the home

• If washing is needed, rinse briefly and dry promptly.

• Avoid soaking in water, as prolonged exposure to moisture may cause the wood to warp or crack.

• This piece is finished with walnut oil. If the surface begins to lose its luster over time, apply a small amount of food-safe oil with a soft cloth to restore its sheen.

With regular use and care, the wood will develop a beautiful natural patina over time.
