: Wabi "The meaning of wabi "

: Traditional Japanese products have a special
: quality about them that attracts the viewer
: on both a conscious and sub conscious level.
: This magnetic appeal is both sensual and
: spiritual, and therefore affects, at least
: to some degree, people who have had no
: training at all in aesthetics and are not
: known for their sensitivity to beauty.

: Part of the sensual spiritual appeal that
: has traditionally been built into Japanese
: homes and products of all kinds is bound up
: in the word " wabi " which
: translates as " quiet of tranquil
: " with a strong connotation or refined
: simplicity. One of the most important words
: in the aesthetic vocabulary of the Japanese,
: wabi is an essential element in everything
: Japanese-whether a scene, a shape, size,
: accessory, decoration, tool, utensil, or
: whatever, and Japanese know instantly if an
: object has the wabi look.

: Sometimes Wabi has a battery for a
: heart...
