The gentleness of wood dwells in a small circle

The "Macaron" is a small box that fits perfectly in the palm of your hand, and is not only adorable in appearance, but also allows you to directly feel the warmth of the wood. When our editorial team first held it in their hands, they felt a slight calming effect from the smooth, almost clinging texture and the gentle appearance created by its rounded shape.

Its diameter is about 60mm and its height is about 30mm. It is perfect for storing accessories and everyday small items, and its quiet presence softens the atmosphere on your desk just by having it there.
Carefully finished to feel the warmth of wood

The round shape of the macarons is achieved by delicate lathe work followed by hand finishing by artisans. Each step contributes to the soft feel in the hand and the pleasant opening and closing of the lid.

The smooth wood surface conveys warmth with every touch, providing a sense of relief and security in ordinary moments of daily life. The precision of machinery and the warmth of human handiwork blend together to create a piece of "small furniture that fits comfortably in your hand."
A fluffy, light and comfortable companion to your lifestyle
Its portability and lightness make it suitable for any location. Whether in the living room, bedroom, or study, it blends in naturally wherever you place it, and simply adding a few small items will give your table or shelf a more tidy look. Its round, soft shape gives it a comforting feel whether you hold it in your hand or carry it over your shoulder.

Our editorial team also felt that every time we enjoyed changing the location and usage of the items, a "gentle moment" was born in our lives.
The creator's passion lies in each piece

This small box called a macaron is infused with the artisan's heart and soul, right down to the smallest detail. The approach of not wasting even a single piece of wood and making the most of it naturally evokes the desire to use it with care when picking it up. The roundness and texture created by carefully carving, polishing, and finishing the material with respect for its individuality gently accompanies the ordinary moments of everyday life.

Each piece has a unique expression and is like a small wooden gift that gives you the warmth and comfort of your hands every time you use it.
We recommend this item as a way to gently add a touch of refined time to your daily life.
