Wabi-Sabi
In traditional Japanese aesthetics, wabi-sabi (侘寂) is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of appreciating beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete" in nature. It is a concept derived from the Buddhist teaching of the three marks of existence (三法印, sanbōin), specifically impermanence (無常, mujō), suffering (苦, ku) and emptiness or absence of self-nature (空, kū).
Characteristics of wabi-sabi aesthetics and principles include asymmetry, simplicity, economy, austerity, modesty, intimacy, and the appreciation of both natural objects and the forces of nature.
With Wabi-Sabi Gifts, we celebrate the simplicity and individual beauty of handmade products, including our exclusive Wabi-Sabi hand-crafted hardwood offerings of single wide-board sushi boards (geta), wooden tableware, serving sets, trays, boxes, cutting boards and kitchen accessories
