5 Days of Inspirational Chandeliers-Day 2

Day 2 of inspirational chandeliers, and the media is wood. I need to take a trip to the Tokyo Table to see this!

Sorry not much information on this chandelier, I searched through many  chandeliers  and most were traditionally styled just with the use of wood instead of metal or glass. This one seemed to be the largest and  seemingly  the most originally styled. It looks as thought they may have used leftover crates of some sort, however I have a felling they were expertly crafted just for the use of this divine chandelier.
