About Mass Series Sumi Limited Meubelkolleksje
Mass Series Sumi Limited is in meubelkolleksje dy't bestiet út in ytstoel, in loungestoel, in kofjetafel, twa krukken en in kapstok. Elk stik kombinearret in stielen frame mei rynsk skaafd sederhout fan âlde beammen. It sederhout wurdt ferkoald neffens in tradisjonele metoade dy't de duorsumens ferbetteret en de nerven dúdlik nei foaren komme lit, wêrtroch't in glânzjend swart oerflak mei in seldsume tekstuer ûntstiet. De donkere ôfwurking ferwiist nei Noyaki, it baarnen fan it gerslân yn it Aso-gebiet, dêr't minsken en natuer mei-inoar libje. De searje is beheind ta 25 eksimplaren yn 't jier.

Rather than just making products, Brand came about with an ambition to protect and preserve the landscape and natural resources that communities cherished and harness it for future generations.
