Chung Dai comes from the third generation of a woodworking family in Binh Dinh - a region famous for precious hardwoods and old-school craftsmanship. Around the workshop, he’s the man people trust with the hardest pieces: tree trunk furniture and log benches, the kind of work where you have to understand the whole tree before you even think about touching a chisel to it.

“My grandfather carved tools for rice fields. I carve shelves for homes in New York City. Same hands. Same wood. Different world.”
Chung Dai comes from the third generation of a woodworking family in Binh Dinh - a region famous for precious hardwoods and old-school craftsmanship. Around the workshop, he’s the man people trust with the hardest pieces: tree trunk furniture and log benches, the kind of work where you have to understand the whole tree before you even think about touching a chisel to it.
Not a single log bench he’s made has ever been returned.
To most craftsmen, that would sound like a proud achievement. To Chung Dai, that’s just the minimum standard for leaving the workshop.

Redefine your living space with an extraordinary statement of functional art through this biomorphic solid wood lounge chair. Seamlessly balancing futuristic fluid geometry with timeless natural elements, this seat transforms seating into a gallery-level sculptural experience while delivering genuine ergonomic comfort.
Authentic Craftsmanship & Real Solid Wood Soul Carved completely from genuine solid wood, this lounge chair celebrates the raw vitality and tactile beauty of honest timber. Free from synthetic fillers, plastics, or flat veneers, the continuous wood grain gracefully wraps around every dramatic curve, negative-space cutout, and rounded edge. Hand-finished to a smooth, silky satin sheen, the warm tones and natural growth patterns provide a soothing, tactile warmth that only authentic solid wood can offer.
Why Choose This Sculptural Accent Chair?
Light-Filtering Negative Space: The perforated backrest features open, organic cutouts that allow light to pass through gracefully, creating dynamic shadow interplay without visual clutter.
Monolithic Stability & Ergonomics: Thick, organically sculpted pillared legs merge seamlessly into a gently dished seat and wing-style high back, cradling the body naturally during reading and lounging sessions.
Standard Profiles & Custom Thickness: The standard model is carved with generous wood thickness to ensure solid structural rigidity, load-bearing longevity, and weighted stability. Should you desire a heavier silhouette with thicker contours or a lighter profile, thickness can be adjusted to your exact vision for a small customization fee.
Ideal Placements Its striking biophilic form complements modern minimalist, Japandi, brutalist, Bauhaus, and contemporary eclectic interiors. It serves as a commanding centerpiece in sunlit reading alcoves beside large glass windows, luxury bedroom corners, executive offices, or modern living room seating arrangements.
Honest Limitations Because this piece is crafted from authentic solid wood, unique wood grain flowing, subtle tone gradients, and delicate natural fissures are celebrated authentic traits of natural timber. The solid wood surface is firm and smooth; for extended hours of reading, pairing it with a sheepskin throw or a tailored linen cushion adds plush softness.

Furniture Placement
Position your furniture away from direct sunlight, or use blinds or curtains to reduce sun exposure.
Always set your furniture on a level surface to preserve its balance and structure.
Cleaning & Upkeep
Regularly wipe down your furniture with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth.
Avoid using harsh chemicals like bleach or ammonia, as these can ruin the finish and damage the wood.

Respect the recommended weight limit for each piece to ensure its durability.
When moving furniture, lift it instead of dragging or pushing to prevent surface scratches or joint damage.
Preventing Mold & Mildew
Quickly wipe up any spills to stop moisture from penetrating the wood.
In areas with high humidity, use a dehumidifier to maintain an ideal moisture balance.

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.
