From the maker:
“This wall lamp was made in Upstate New York using an ancient Japanese technique that uses a chimney to scorch and preserve the fragrant cedar wood. The charred Biscuits are brushed and waxed to enhance the natural beauty of the growth rings encouraging a quiet meditation on time. It smells great too!”
