Floodborne Tea Table — 1569 x 530 x 170mm
Kitsune Moon Studio
Once it lay twisted in the paddocks of Lismore — a eucalyptus slab cast aside after the floods of 2017. Water had moved through it, and time had marked it. The grain tightened, warped, remembered.
I found it not as timber, but as a survivor.
This piece was shaped slowly, with reverence. The twists were not corrected, only understood. Fire kissed the surface to draw out its story; char revealing, copper stitching. Oil and wax were worked deep into the fibres, sealing memory with warmth and touch.
At 1569 x 530 x 170mm, it sits low to the earth — a grounding presence. A tea table made for ceremony. For quiet mornings. For conversations that wander like water and settle like ash.
This is not furniture polished into submission.
It is flood, flame, and hand brought into harmony.
A remnant made sacred.
