Large Teak Wood Root Hand-Carved Organic Sculpture Sphere

About the Item

Impressive organic teak wood root shaped into a sphere sculpture. This large heavy natural teak root sculpture sphere has been hand-carved from reclaimed natural teak wood root sphere to create this perfect beauty sculpture. The inner root has been left to its natural beautiful state, while the outer section has been polished to produce a visually stunning contrast. By leaving the live edge it gives the inner surface of the ball a unique organic shape and preserves its natural beauty. This is a great piece of hand carved teak wood ball made out of the root of a teak tree which is a large hardwood tree native southeast Asia. This piece has a very nice natural look and feel to it and it would make a wonderful addition to any style home. A decorative work of art that can be placed on the floor to enhance your environment Made in the spirit of wabi-sabi, a Japanese philosophy that beauty can be found in imperfection and impermanence. It is a beauty of things modest and humble. A beauty of things unconventional. It is the opposite of vulgarity. The costs of achieving this kind of minimalism are seemingly inconsistent with its mission of aesthetic humility. This kind of luxury is for a select few: The Emperor of Japan had a wabi garden. Wabi is for people who already have a lot. Teak ball perfect for a garden ornament or indoor to add the organic beauty to any home decor. Very large 2 feet wide wood sculpture sphere.
