Kumiko | Seikai-ha patterns
Kumiko is a Japanese woodwork technique that goes back to the 8th century. Having developed over a long period of time, kumiko refers to a sophisticated technique of grooving slit wooden pieces and arranging them in geometric patterns without nails as a form of wooden lattice decoration.
Each piece is assembled by hand with an accuracy of 0.1mm. Despite its delicate design, you’ll be surprised with the durability and longevity of kumiko wood panels. Made only by the best, award-winning artisans in Japan.
Waves express infinity and are associated therefore, with the hope for a happy and long-lasting life. And since waves resemble the shape of an open and ever-broadening fan, this auspicious design is much favoured. You can easily assemble multiple panels to a larger size.
