It would seem that a table, and especially a modern table, cannot have a nationality. For the sake of convenience and ergonomics, globalization has erased all the differences that could exist between the traditional ideas about furniture among different nations. But here are a couple of Japanese students Jeonghwa Seo and Hanna chung I strongly disagree with this. They created very Japanese tea table Ripple effect tea table.
The tea ceremony is not only a very difficult and important process for the Japanese, but also a real cultural phenomenon that is important for the whole world. It is not for nothing that the Japanese tea ceremony is a candidate for inclusion in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List.
Of course, not all modern Japanese people, let alone the round-eyed barbarians, are able to perform a real tea ceremony. But nobody canceled the aesthetic pleasure during the process of unhurried drinking of tea. And the Japanese are masters of everything that concerns aesthetic pleasure. And the Ripple effect tea table was created not so much for practical needs as for aesthetic ones. Of course, it can serve as a table. But the table is unusual. After all, he is not suitable for anything other than drinking tea with him.
And all because it has a special property - a ripple effect. One has only to put a cup of tea on it, and circles will immediately go from it on the table top. The people sitting around this table are ordered to sit silently and admire this profound spectacle.
But the purpose of this table is not only to bring aesthetic pleasure to people. It is also conceived in order to teach people to take leisurely, deliberate actions, in all life situations to act not expressively, calmly, thinking many times before doing something, how to wait until the circles on the tabletop of this table take place before than continue the conversation. Well, the main task of the Ripple effect tea table is to show that everything in this world is interconnected. The ripple effect in a great visual embodiment. In general, a very Japanese tea table.
And after a couple of cups of tea at this table, all that remains is to put on a kimono and go to the Winter Cherry Festival in Okinawa. It doesn't matter if you are in Japan now or in Moscow.
