Material
Mother-of-pearl, Solid wood (Walnut)
Size
(W)850 x (L)160 x (h)280mm
Precautions
Solid wood is a living material that responds to its environment, much like a tree breathing. This may result in natural changes to the wooden product over time. It is sensitive to changes in humidity and temperature, which can cause expansion or contraction; this is an inherent characteristic of solid wood. Therefore, proper care and attention are necessary. Please understand that these changes are not defects in the product, but natural occurrences in a natural material. By considering these characteristics of solid wood products during use, you can maintain the beauty and value of the product for a long time.
