"Comfortable to use, comfortable to display."

As the saying goes, the works of Kenta Nakanishi are captivating for their comfortable usability and refined appearance.

Nakanishi-san, whose hobby is mountain climbing, originally made tools for outdoor activities.
He reportedly crafts items with an awareness of how gracefully they will blend into everyday life.

His works are meticulously crafted, with attention to details such as how shadows are cast by light and the seamless integration of wood grain.

This is a slender serving board made from cherry wood.

Its elongated shape is just the right size for arranging baguettes or baked goods, or for serving small portions of cheese or dried fruits.
Simply arranging ingredients in a single row creates a naturally beautiful display.

When not in use, simply leaning it against a shelf or wall creates a picturesque display.
It is a tool that allows you to enjoy both the time spent using it and the time spent admiring it in your daily life.
