The Mazu Stool is a natural wood stool with a contemporary, stepped ring design. Its wood construction is made using Indonesian suar wood and its high quality finish will add a distinctive look to your home. You can also use this as a side table - just make sure you put it front and center in your home, where it can get the appreciation it deserves._x000D_ Suar wood always varies in tone, colour and pattern. Wood is a living material that expands and contracts, causing cracks and knots. We take steps during transport and in our warehouse to dry and coat suar wooden items, but it may still hold moisture deep within that can seep out over time.Treating the product with a protective oil yearly is recommended, this will also revive the colour.
