How to Get Japanese-Style Furniture Set: All 13 Items

The Japanese-Style Furniture Set is one technology unlock at level 55 that drops 13 new pieces into your build menu at once — folding screens, paper and stone lanterns, a sunken hearth, floor cushions, a bonsai and the rest of the tatami-room kit. This guide covers the level and point cost, every piece with its exact build recipe, the full material bill for the complete set, and where to farm the 110 Hardwood the whole thing runs on.

Japanese-Style Furniture Set at a Glance

This is the biggest furniture technology in the game by piece count. Most decorative sets on the Palworld Technology Tree hand you two to five objects for a single point — the Japanese-Style Furniture Set hands you 13 for two points, which is the best decoration-per-point rate anywhere on the tree. It has no parent technology, so the only gate is your character level, and nothing in it needs power or a worker assigned.

How to Unlock the Japanese-Style Furniture Set

Hit character level 55, open the technology tree, and spend two points on the Japanese-Style Furniture Set — every piece then appears permanently in the build menu, no schematic hunting and no extra unlock steps. Level 55 is a crowded row and two points is cheap for what you get, but be honest about the competition: Lightweight Plasteel Armor at five points is a real survivability jump, and the Blazamut Ryu Saddle at four is the mount you actually ride. The Homing Sphere Launcher does not compete at all — it is a boss technology paid for with Ancient Technology Points, so it comes out of a completely separate pool.

All 13 Japanese-Style Furniture Pieces and Build Costs

Eleven of the 13 are pure decoration, and the recipes are refreshingly forgiving — nine of them are just Hardwood plus one cheap second material. The Stone Lantern is the outlier at 15 Stone and nothing else, which makes it the cheapest thing in the set by a mile and the one to spam along a path. At the other end, the Japanese Floor Chair is the priciest build at 15 Hardwood, 10 Fiber and 3 Cloth, because Cloth means shearing sheep. The two pieces that earn their footprint are the Paper Lantern, which is an actual light source rather than an ornament, and the Japanese-Style Chest, which stores items.

Piece	Build menu tab	Materials	What it is
Stone Lantern	Furniture	15 Stone	Cheapest piece in the set — path and garden filler
Japanese Writing Table	Furniture	10 Hardwood	Single-material build, the easiest one to mass-place
Folding Screen	Furniture	10 Hardwood, 10 Fiber	Room divider — the best piece for faking separate rooms
Hanging Scroll	Furniture	10 Hardwood, 10 Fiber	Wall decoration for bare Japanese-style walls
Bonsai	Furniture	10 Hardwood, 1 Paldium Fragment	Tabletop tree — the only piece asking for Paldium
Flower Arrangement	Furniture	10 Hardwood, 1 Beautiful Flower	Ikebana display, and the rarest single material in the set
Japanese Floor Cushion	Furniture	3 Cloth, 10 Fiber	Floor seating, the only piece that needs no Hardwood or Stone
Japanese Floor Chair	Furniture	15 Hardwood, 3 Cloth, 10 Fiber	Legless chair — the most expensive build of the 13
Deer Scare	Furniture	10 Hardwood, 3 Aquatic Pal Fluids	The clacking bamboo water feature for outdoor gardens
Japanese Hearth	Furniture	10 Hardwood, 3 Ingot, 2 Charcoal	Sunken floor hearth — decorative, it does not cook
Incense Burner	Furniture	3 Ingot, 5 Wood	Small metal censer, the only piece using plain Wood
Japanese Paper Lantern	Lighting	10 Hardwood, 3 Flame Organ	A real light source, not decoration — the set's night lighting
Japanese-Style Chest	Storage	15 Hardwood, 5 Stone	Working storage container in a wooden tansu shell

The Two Pieces That Actually Do a Job

Skim the set and it looks like pure dressing, but two entries are functional buildings wearing a Japanese coat of paint. The Japanese Paper Lantern sits in the Lighting tab, so it lights a room at night the way a torch or lamp does — build these instead of the ugly wall torches and your interior stops looking like a mining camp. The Japanese-Style Chest sits in Storage and holds items like any other chest; its recipe is the level 2 Wooden Chest's recipe with Hardwood swapped in for Wood, so it costs 15 Hardwood and 5 Stone instead of 15 Wood and 5 Stone. Everything else in the set is decoration only — the Hearth does not cook and the Floor Chair does not restore anything, so do not plan a base around them.

Full Material Cost for the Complete Set

Building one of every piece costs 197 items across 11 material lines, and 110 of those are Hardwood — the set is essentially a Hardwood sink with garnish. Nothing else is remotely scary: 40 Fiber weaves out of 20 Wood at any workbench, 20 Stone is one rock, and the single Beautiful Flower is the only item on the list you might not already have in a box. Break the crafted lines down and the true raw bill is 110 Hardwood, 29 Wood, 20 Stone, 12 Wool, 12 Ore, 3 Flame Organ, 3 Aquatic Pal Fluids, 1 Paldium Fragment and 1 Beautiful Flower.

Material	Total for all 13	Where it comes from
Hardwood	110	Trees in desert, volcanic and snowy regions, four Pals, or 100 Gold each at four merchant families
Fiber	40	Chopping trees, or woven 1 Wood → 2 Fiber at a Primitive Workbench
Stone	20	8,157 Rock nodes and 4,286 Small Rock nodes on Palpagos
Cloth	6	Woven from 2 Wool each — 12 Wool total, off a Lamball or Melpaca ranch
Ingot	6	Smelted from 2 Ore each — 12 Ore, out of 1,632 ore nodes
Wood	5	4,654 Lumber nodes, plus 24 more Wood if you craft the Fiber and Charcoal
Flame Organ	3	37 different Pals drop it, or a Flambelle ranch makes it passively
Aquatic Pal Fluids	3	37 different Pals drop it, or a Kelpsea ranch makes it passively
Charcoal	2	Burned from 2 Wood each at a Furnace
Paldium Fragment	1	711 Paldium Ore nodes
Beautiful Flower	1	Only 27 flower spots on the whole map — easier to kill a Dualith for 3-5

How to Get 110 Hardwood

Hardwood only comes off the tougher trees — the ones growing in desert, volcanic and snowy ground — so a normal forest logging run gives you nothing. Three ways to close the 110, and the boring one wins: buy it. Four merchant families sell Hardwood at 100 Gold apiece, so the whole set's supply is 11,000 Gold, which is an afternoon of selling junk drops and far quicker than swinging an axe on Mount Obsidian. If you would rather farm it, Wumpo Botan is the best per-kill source at 2-5 with 83 spawn spots and an Alpha at level 38, and it is also a genuinely good base worker worth catching a few of. Only four Pals drop Hardwood at all, so there is no deep bench here.

Hardwood source	Yield	Details
Village, Desert, Volcano and Wandering merchants	Unlimited	100 Gold each — 11,000 Gold buys the full 110
Wumpo Botan	2-5 guaranteed	83 spawn spots · Alpha at Lv. 38
Palumba	2-4 guaranteed	42 spawn spots
Mossanda	1-3 guaranteed	52 spawn spots
Mossanda Lux	1-3 guaranteed	40 spawn spots · Alpha at Lv. 31

Cloth, Flame Organ and the Odd Bits

The short lines are all ranch problems, which means they solve themselves while you are away. Six Cloth is 12 Wool, and a Lamball on a Ranch produces Wool forever — Melpaca is the better producer at rank 2, and Sweepa drops 3-5 per kill if you would rather hunt. Flame Organ and Aquatic Pal Fluids are three each, small enough that any Fire or Water Pal you kill on the way home covers it, though a Kelpsea and a Flambelle parked on ranches means you never think about it again. The genuinely awkward one is the Beautiful Flower for the Flower Arrangement: only 27 pick-up spots exist across Palpagos, so kill a Dualith for a guaranteed 3-5 instead, or hand a Caravan merchant 500 Gold.

Material	Need	Best Pal source	Ranch it?
Wool	12 (→ 6 Cloth)	Sweepa 3-5, Melpaca 2-5	Yes — Melpaca, Cremis or Lamball
Flame Organ	3	Rooby and 36 other droppers	Yes — Rooby, Kelpsea Ignis or Flambelle
Aquatic Pal Fluids	3	Kelpsea and 36 other droppers	Yes — Kelpsea, on 1,359 spawn spots
Beautiful Flower	1	Dualith 3-5, Petallia 2-3	No — 27 map nodes or 500 Gold
Fiber	40	Hoocrates 5-10, Hangyu 5-10	No — weave it from Wood instead

Building a Full Japanese Base

Furniture alone will not sell the look — it needs the walls to match, and the Japanese building pieces are a separate technology six levels earlier. Buy the Japanese-Style Structure Set at level 49 first: two points for 23 building parts, every one of them 4 Hardwood, so a whole house frame costs less Hardwood than four folding screens. From there the theme extends in cheap one-point steps, and the run ends at the Japanese-Style Hot Spring at level 64, which is the only entry on this list that does something mechanically useful for your Pals.

Japanese-theme technology	Level	Points	What you get
Faux Bamboo Set	23	1	5 pieces — bamboo clumps at 20 Wood each, plus flowering bushes
Japanese-Style Structure Set	49	2	23 building parts — walls, doors, roofs, stairs, all 4 Hardwood each
Japanese-Style Furniture Set	55	2	13 pieces — the interior kit this guide covers
Moonflower Flag Set	55	1	2 banners for the ninja faction — 20 High Quality Cloth each
Faux Cherry Blossoms Set	56	1	3 cherry trees at 20 Hardwood each
Japanese-Style Hot Spring	64	3	The SAN-restoring bath — the only functional piece of the theme

Is the Japanese-Style Furniture Set Worth 2 Points?

If you care at all about how your base looks, yes — nothing else on the technology tree gives 13 build pieces for two points, and by level 55 you are earning points faster than you are spending them on gear you actually use. If you only build for function, skip it and take armor: 11 of the 13 pieces do nothing, and the two that do have plainer equivalents you unlocked 40 levels ago. The middle ground is fine too, since the set unlocks permanently — buy it now, build the Paper Lanterns and the Chest for the utility, and come back to the screens and bonsai when you have Hardwood to burn.
