This piece is crafted from wild agarwood sourced from Hainan's Jianfengling region,
a rare material of exceptional quality.
Direct from the source.
While the resin content doesn't quite reach sinking-grade saturation,
its aroma is truly astonishing, boasting an intensely sweet fragrance inherent to wild specimens.
It offers a more complex profile than green *kyara*,
with each inhalation revealing a shifting interplay of coolness and bittersweet notes.
Artist: Kwood

Born in Hsinchu, Taiwan, in 1983, Kwood's background in craft design and extensive travels through Japan's streets have imbued him with a deep appreciation for how wooden art breathes warm, profound life into ancient alleyways. Objects that seem like fragments of time, bearing the marks of history and the contours of the future, find a delicate balance between contrast and harmony in his work. This translates into refined pieces that intimately connect the perspective of a new generation with the simplicity of the past. Agarwood, once ground into powder for its scent, is revered in Japan, placed in the most auspicious areas of the home as a symbol of vitality and light.
Sourced directly from its origin, this agarwood is pure and unadulterated, free from artificial enhancements like boiling resin, artificial coloring, or added fragrances. It is presented in its most natural state, utilizing ancient scent-extraction techniques. The artist meticulously hand-peels the outer layers of the aged wood to reveal the true soul of the agarwood. This process not only bestows it with enduring vitality but also allows tradition and contemporary craftsmanship to subtly intertwine at the fingertips, culminating in a feast for both the eyes and the senses. Its rich aroma is like the condensation of time, gently drawing together memories of the past and aspirations for the future, allowing them to meet and resonate within the fragrance, creating an enduring, profound, and distant allure.
