Tai Chi is an ancient form of Chinese martial arts. It is practiced for defense training, health benefits and meditation. Carved from a solid piece of chamcha wood, an acacia species native to Thailand, and lovingly finished with a special stone-like patina. No need to purchase a pedestal as these are sold as a single piece for easy installation. A llittle whimsy, a lot of zen, and certainly worthy of a conversation. Available in four positions.
