I have introduced you to Japanese (Hinoki) Cypress Tree Wood Shavings from Japan last few blogs. They are packed in Japan by company called NISIMOKU. They are headed by young entrepreneur and employ handicapped people to package them.

But they are not a wood shaving company. Wood shavings are the byproduct of some of the finest hand made wood products from Japan. Today, I would like to show you one of their products. It is a 3.5" coaster made our of KOEMATSU (肥松) ... Japanese Pine Tree. It naturally contains a lot of Pine Rosin. This product is left untreated so that it will age (turn darker) as you use.

The precast is also available on request and Uchikura and Co. is looking for distributors or stores who want to carry them in the US and Canada. If you are interested, please contact ken@uchikura.co
