Brightmoor Bento Kit

Designed in Detroit, refined in Japan at Ishinomaki Lab, The Brightmoor Bento Kit is 18 carefully cut pieces of wood (cedar, poplar or pine) that can be combined in many combinations to build.

Build a toolbox, a birdhouse, a stool  a bench, a different bird house, a shelf, a tray.
