Cypress Expert
The Taiwanese cypress has a slight red color and elegant scent that made me feel refreshing. Cypress is the best wood for furniture. Because of its special scent, some people use it to make lots of artworks that will last forever.
Store Introduction – the Beauty of Art
(Figure 1) There was a cypress wood shop in Lukang Old Street. Stepping into the shop, we not only smelt the scent of cypress but also enjoyed many works made of cypress. The owner was very friendly. She patiently made introduction and answered our questions. After her explanation, I felt I got familiar with cypress.
The Scent of Cypress Makes me feel Calm.
(Figure 2) The corks in our hands are made of cypress. They have a slight scent that made me feel great! I heard the scent could calm us down since it contains phytoncide. The scent of cypress keeps insects away, so it can be used for repelling mosquitos.
