[Young Works] Bookrest House by Takeshi Hiratsuka

A house-shaped object that appears to have a roof when you place a book you're reading on it.

The way the books are floating slightly makes it look like a house is hidden underneath them, which is adorable.

It will be fun to hang a different colored roof each time, and it will also help you read more every day.

[Precautions for use]
-This product has an oil and wax finish.
Placing wet items on the surface will ruin the feel and may cause stains, deformation, or cracks.

[About maintenance]
- If dirt or dust adheres to the product, wipe it off quickly with a dry cloth or a tightly wrung-out cloth.
- If used for a long time, the surface may dry out and lose its luster.
If you apply wax to it about once every six months, just like you would to any other piece of furniture, the wood's texture will improve with use, and you can enjoy the changes that occur over time.

*Wax can be purchased from our online shop or in-store, but please read the precautions carefully before use. Always soak cloths, sponges, etc. that have wax on them thoroughly in water before disposing of them (if left as is, there is a risk of spontaneous combustion).

・Small scratches, dents, ring marks, etc. may be able to be restored using sandpaper or an iron. If you start to notice any issues with the appearance, please feel free to contact us. We also regularly hold free maintenance workshops at KOMAshop (announced on social media).

[Young people's works]
KOMA continues to encourage its young employees to "create their own artwork every month." The company purchases the artwork and adds it to their salary. We believe that selling the artwork is a sustainable way to develop human resources.
We aim to be a group of craftsmen where each individual has their own originality.
