Kakimori A5 Wooden Writing Tray
Description
Elevate your writing space with the Kakimori A5 Wooden Writing Tray — a beautifully composed union of form, function, and Japanese craftsmanship. Designed to hold one pen and A5-sized paper items, it’s made from a refined pairing of Japanese cherry and chestnut wood. The cherry heartwood forms a warm, protective cradle for your pen, while the chestnut letter tray keeps paper neatly in reach, with a recessed edge for easy access. Crafted using the traditional hikikomi-tometsugi joinery technique, it embodies quiet durability and understated elegance — the kind of object that becomes part of your daily ritual.
