Greeks had their hamadryads, nymphs who lived inside the trees.

Japanese worshipped kami gods that resided in them, too.

Even today, people still spontaneously get a feeling that trees store up some kind of subtle, possibly beneficial energy they might be able to get in touch with.

Maybe. And if so, it stands to reason that sizeable objects like these, made of solid wood, should retain more of that good stuff.

Simple, solid furniture with a quietly imposing presence. Respectfully hand-carved by traditional Asian craftsmen using plantation-grown acacia wood and teak, rich in natural color and grain.

Contemplating them may not lead to enlightenment, but they'll certainly uplift a room.
