Antique Wooden Geometric Object

An old Japanese wooden object featuring a bold geometric form constructed around a central square opening. Cut from a thick piece of wood, its irregular radial silhouette and simple construction suggest a utilitarian origin, possibly as a stand, support, spacer or component of a larger object. The darkened surface and visible wear reveal the character of the wood developed through time and use.
