“I work slowly on purpose. Slowness is where the quality lives.”
Thac Huynh was born in Hue into a family with a long tradition of royal-style wood carving, and you can see that patience in every piece he touches. He calls it “being slow in the right places.”
He specializes in fine detail carving - especially the ribbed undersides on Ashdeco’s mushroom shelves, all shaped carefully by his own hands. Around the workshop, the other craftsmen joke that he probably counts every single ridge one by one.
Man Thac never argues with them. Mostly because… they’re probably right.
Detailed information about this piece — tap a section to expand.
A smooth branch climbs your wall with four mushroom platforms stepping outward at alternating heights, each one dished like a shallow bowl to cradle whatever you set down.
Our artisans carve the central branch from solid wood, following the natural grain as it curves gently upward. The trunk surface is sanded smooth with visible grain lines running along its full length, warm honey-amber in tone with natural color shifts where the wood bends. Each mushroom platform grows from the branch through a sculpted Y-joint that mimics the way real bracket fungi emerge from living wood.
4 wide, dished mushroom platforms. Every shelf has a generous kidney-shaped surface with a shallow concave dish carved into the top. The dished shape holds round objects steady, keeps small items from rolling, and gives potted plants a natural cradle. The platforms alternate left and right as they step up the branch: bottom-right, middle-left, upper-right, top-left. Each one is spaced far enough apart to display a ceramic vase, a pillar candle, an air plant in its pot, or a small figurine without crowding.
Carved gill detail at every Y-joint. Where each platform meets the branch, the underside fans out with hand-carved gill lines radiating from the trunk to the outer edge of the cap. The gills are carved wide and clean, catching overhead light and casting a fine pattern of parallel shadows that give the piece depth and texture from below.
Smooth, sculpted branch trunk. The central trunk is carved round and smooth with a gentle upward curve, thicker at the base and tapering naturally toward the top. The sanded surface reveals tight wood grain in warm golden tones. Where the branch forks into each platform, the Y-joints are shaped with organic curves that flow seamlessly from trunk to shelf.
What goes into every piece:
• Solid wood throughout, hand-selected for tight grain and warm tone • 4 kidney-shaped mushroom platforms with dished concave surfaces • Hand-carved gill lines at every Y-joint where cap meets branch • Smooth, tapered branch trunk with visible natural grain • Sculpted Y-joint connections between trunk and each platform • Concealed wall-mount bracket system, all hardware included
Where it fits. Beside a window where morning light catches the grain. In an entryway for keys and a small plant. Next to a reading chair. Along a hallway. Above a desk. The alternating platforms fill a tall wall section while the smooth branch trunk adds warmth and organic movement to any flat wall.
Handcrafted by Vietnamese artisans. Every gill line, every dished surface, every Y-joint curve is shaped by hand. No molds. No machines. No two pieces alike.

Craftsmanship vs factory
What separates handcrafted from factory-made
Both are solid wood. Both look beautiful in catalog photos. But the difference shows up when you live with the piece for 10 years and again when you pass it down.
Comparison between Factory-made solid wood ($810.00) and our floating shelf ($1,080.00), covering lifespan, annual cost, restorability, and quality factors.

Soul of wood
No two tables are ever the same
Every plank carries its own grain, color, and knots. These aren't flaws - they are time's signature, the fingerprint of a tree that lived for decades. When you touch a Ashdeco table, you're touching the years it stood through.

Everything you need to know about our pieces, commissions, and care.
How long does shipping take?
In Vietnam: 3-5 days. International: 10-14 days. Larger pieces (tables, cabinets) may take longer due to custom crating. All shipments include tracking and insurance.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship worldwide. Shipping is calculated by weight + dimensions at checkout. You'll see the exact quote before paying.
How long does a commission take?
4-8 weeks depending on complexity. A 6-seater dining table takes ~6 weeks, a console cabinet ~4 weeks, a large sideboard ~8 weeks.
50% deposit is required when you confirm sketches. The remaining 50% is due when the piece is finished, before shipping. Full refund within 48 hours of deposit if you change your mind.
How do I take care of my wood piece?
Wipe with a damp cloth — no chemicals. Apply wood oil 1-2 times per year (we include a starter bottle). Avoid direct sunlight and big humidity changes.
What if my piece develops cracks?
Wood expands and contracts with humidity — minor cracks are natural and part of the material. Major cracks within the first year: we fix free. After 1 year, we charge labor only.
Can I return a piece?
Ready-made pieces: 30-day returns (must arrive intact). Commissions: final sale (since they're custom-made for you). If anything arrives damaged, we'll repair or replace at no cost.
