a beautiful pattern appears

Indigo-dyed trays are dyed using a natural and traditional way of dyeing called “Hakko-date,” which uses only natural materials and does not use any chemicals.

By indigo-dyeing the white sycamore trays, which have a characteristic luster pattern (shrinkage), the beautiful pattern, like ripples that spread when a drop falls on the water surface, is further enhanced.

The identically shaped hexagonal wood veneer are combined with the wood grain in different directions.Although all the pieces are made of the same color and wood type, the geometrical arrangement of each piece makes the color of the wood appear different depending on the viewpoint and angle of the viewer, giving it a shimmering impression.This is why we named it "hoek" (meaning "viewpoint" or "angle" in Dutch).
