"Elipse Butsudan" A butsudan is a Buddhist altar found in most Japanese homes. The traditional altar is very ornate and boxy, but I have taken the basic elements and interpreted them in many different contemporary western design styles. This one is based on the plan of the ellipse, made of Hawaiian Koa and Camphorwood burl. $12,000
"Art Deco" made of quilted Maple with padauk and purpleheart accents. The accessories are turned from the same woods. $5900, Accessory set $1200.	Hi! Thanks for checking out the butsudans on my website. I have been an SGI-USA member for 36 years. There are many different types of Buddhisms that use butsudans, each having its own requirements. Because of this, I am only familiar with the design requirements of SGI-USA Nichiren Buddhism, and so can only make butsudans for SGI-USA practitioners.  All of the butsudans I make are big enough to accomodate a larger size block print (tokebetsu oketagi) Gohonzon.  Each Altar set is handcrafted by me alone, therefore, it may take a little while to get your "Dream Butsudan". All of the butsudans shown here have prices based on the least expensive domestic woods like Cherry, Maple, Ash and oak, therefore, the price can be higher  depending on the type of wood you select.  There are about 120 commercially available species of wood, and their prices fluctuate with time, so it is impossible to list them here.  I have more butsudan designs, but these have been the most popular. Email me at pete@schlebeckerstudios.com Thanks, Pete Schlebecker Coming Soon!  A new design will be an Arts and Crafts style altar set.
"Elegant Simplicity" is an Altar set that combines a less expensive Butsudan with a parsons-style table set.  Shown here in Mahogany $1900.  The table can be embellished with rounded shoulders  as in the picture below (in Cherry with Jatoba trim) which increases the price to $2400. Butsudan by itself is $1100. The accessories are extra ($1200) and can also be turned out of the same woods.	"Octagon" is based on the plan section of an octagon. I have made this one many times in slightly different proportions. This one is in teak and ebony. $6000.  Butsudan by itself is $3000.  Shown below in Bubinga and Macassar ebony.
