Mira Nakashima "...," and trees not only Board on the building of two really call fillet is full. Vertical slices of walnut, cherry, and other species — grains, shape and shortcomings — Nakajima is unquestionably the course for the refined furnishings to be's no slip.

Mira's father George Nakashima, who died in 1990... Of was part of the heritage of crafts and design Nakajima collaborators, Mira itself, including more than ten years of practice and together. Has established a clear continuation of George Nakashima, his workshop to plan, he had bought ten years production than enough wood table, bench, desk and Chair.

"Go had been loyal hearts, people here so much for a long time and the required job men kept going," Mira Nakashima recall. However, it also I to me... It was the duty felt.
