700 x 378 x 324 mm side table in Ash. The piece asks you to look at it, touch it, and to consider it as something hand-made. The title, the Even-Ash Side Table, comes from folklore; ash being a tree of strength and power, of protection and healing. Leaves from the tree that have an even number of leaflets on them are considered lucky.
