Its color deepens from sapwood to heartwood, with the heartwood exhibiting a rainbow-like hue, earning it the beautiful moniker "rainbow cypress." According to Forestry Bureau data, Taiwania has a specific gravity of approximately 0.38 to 0.45. Its relatively low density and soft texture, among all domestic timber, allow for a unique combination with cement. This balance between soft and hard gives rise to innovative design. In the Shan Shi Shan series' emblem, "Shan" (mountain) represents cement, "Shi" (fir) represents Taiwania wood, and "Shan" (ten) symbolizes addition (+). Phonetically, "Shan" also echoes the sound of "three," suggesting three mountains and three fir trees. This, combined with the Rukai indigenous people's poetic name for Taiwania – "the tree that bumps into the moon" – inspires the final design, complete with a crescent moon accent. Thus, the "Shan Shi Shan" series was born. https://youtube.com/shorts/v0Aim-VBkxk?feature=share The Shan Shi Shan pen holder organizer can serve various purposes in different settings.
