Saito Wood

In Shizuoka, Japan resides Saito Wood, a company founded in 1948 by Isamu Saito specialising in the use of moulded plywood technology.

The 'No.901 Basket' was completed in 1959 and has continued to be produced until this very day. Although thin and light in weight, all of Saito Wood's pieces have sufficient strength thanks to the horizontal and vertical layering of the wood during the production process.

Thanks to the natural qualities of the material each Saito piece has a unique warmth that sets their work apart from other mass-produced products.
