Kisaragi

By K5 Furniture

An innovation called Compressed straight-grainer cedar.

Kisaragi is the worlds first dining chair to make use of straight-grained cedar wood. HIDA’s attempt to leverage the appeal of the dignified straight grain that is characteristic of cedar lead to research for compressed wood that was not “cross-grain wood,” where knots and the like appear in the wood, but “straight-grain wood,” which requires more precise and uniform compression technology. Success in this research birthed “Kisaragi,” where the beautiful straight grain and straight lines are out in their best light. The name “Kisaragi,” means “for plants to turn over a new leaf,” symbolising domestic cedar wood being given a new lease on life.
