Handcrafted Wooden Coaster - Donut Shape - Walnut

【What it is】 A wooden coaster meticulously crafted on a lathe by a skilled artisan. This is not a mass-produced item made from a mold; each piece is slowly shaped and refined from a solid block of wood. Consequently, every wood grain is distinct, making each coaster one-of-a-kind. The recessed center design ensures your cup sits stably without slipping. The surface has a subtly textured feel, a genuine tactile sensation of wood, unlike the overly smooth, plastic-like finish of some polished items. It possesses a pleasant weight when placed on a desk, resisting accidental nudges. 【Perfect for】 ・Coasters (its primary function, naturally) ・Small dishes for keys, rings, or watches ・A tactile way to relax and de-stress during work breaks by touching the wood grain ・Thoughtful gifts (both practical and elegant) Some may use it as an aroma diffuser (wood absorbs essential oils), but please note: If you apply essential oils, the wood will darken, which is a normal occurrence. After using essential oils, it's advisable not to place cups on it for a period to avoid oil stains. 【Specifications】 ・Diameter: Approx. 9 cm ・Thickness: Approx. 2.5 cm ・Weight: Approx. 70g Surface Treatment ・Finished with natural protective oil ・Allows you to feel the wood's pores and texture 【About the Wood Grain】 As this is natural wood, each piece will have variations in grain pattern and color. Some may exhibit slight color differences, small knots, or minor hairline cracks. These are characteristics of the wood, not defects. If perfect consistency in grain or color is crucial to you, this product might not be the ideal choice. (We cannot guarantee that each item will be identical.) If you appreciate the individuality of each piece, then this one is uniquely yours. 【Care Instructions】 Daily Use ・Use it normally without excessive caution. ・If your cup has condensation, wipe it with a dry cloth. ・Do not soak in water or use a dishwasher. If the Wood Becomes Dry ・Apply a small amount of wood wax oil or edible oil for maintenance. ・Wipe it on with a cloth, let it sit for 10 minutes, then wipe off any excess oil to restore its luster. Normal Phenomena to Expect ・The color will gradually deepen over time (wood aging). ・Minor hairline cracks may appear (part of the wood's texture). This is an item that will age gracefully alongside you. 【About SHANYE】 We are a local woodworking design brand from Kaohsiung, comprised of a master craftsman and a small team.
