Camphor wood is Taiwan's top-grade timber, also known as the "Red Ruby of the Taiwanese Forest."
Camphor wood is widely distributed in Taiwan, found naturally from an altitude of 200 to 2,000 meters. In early times, camphor wood was not highly valued, with most of it used for exporting camphor oil. A small portion, due to its excellent material, was used for carving deities and ornaments. Its use in furniture was less common, simply because camphor wood tends to warp and is unstable when cut into thin pieces. In recent years, with the unique Taiwanese camphor wood producing the camphor mushroom, and earning the reputation of "Red Ruby of the Forest," this wild mushroom specifically parasitizes the inner walls of hollowed camphor wood trunks. It is said to have significant medicinal properties and is used as a precious traditional Chinese medicine, naturally causing its price to soar. Cases of timber theft are frequent, all for camphor wood, which the government has long since legislated against cutting.

The charm of old items lies in their "character" and overall aesthetic.
Timber salvaged from dismantled old cypress houses in early Taiwan. This aged wood is sufficiently stable, with traces of human use on its surface, imparting the allure of vintage pieces and a distinct sense of time. Old timber may inevitably have nail holes, extremely fine cracks, or small pits. Visible imperfections have generally been repaired and polished. Areas that could not be polished or left unrepaired are intentionally preserved to maintain the original nostalgic and retro ambiance of the vintage piece. Despite its age, it may bear marks of nail holes and insect activity.
The listed price is for a single piece, shipped randomly. Please ensure you accept these conditions before purchasing, or inquire beforehand. Thank you.
Usage and Care Instructions:
Wipe with a soft cloth dampened with clean water. Do not use any cleaning agents, as the wood will absorb them.
After drying excess moisture with a cloth, allow it to air dry naturally in a cool place.
You may apply unscented Vaseline for maintenance. The woody aroma will naturally dissipate from the surface over time and gradually fade, which is a normal phenomenon.
