Morning Wood V10 By Akori Studio Upd May 2026
The base of the Morning Wood V10 now unscrews to reveal a silicone-lined storage silo for up to 2 grams of concentrate. This turns the device into an all-in-one travel kit, eliminating the need for a separate jar.
Akori Studio is offering the V10 update as a retrofit kit for owners of the V8 and V9. This is rare in the industry. Here is what the UPD kit contains:

Drop Overview
Akori Studio returns with the tenth iteration of their cult-favorite Morning Wood series. Known for blurring the line between designer toy, functional sculpture, and statement piece, V10 continues the tradition of playful subversion wrapped in premium materials.
Design & Aesthetic
The V10 retains the signature “stump” silhouette—organic woodgrain textures contrasted with hyper-smooth, almost liquid-looking resin accents. This version introduces a metallic dawn gradient (soft peach to pale gold) on the “cracked bark” sections, while the core remains a deep walnut stain. The base features a hidden magnetic compartment (a first for the series), nodding to “keeping secrets under the forest floor.”
Materials & Build
Functional Quirk
Like prior Morning Wood pieces, V10 functions as both a standalone art object and a discreet phone dock (fits most devices vertically). The “morning” reference plays out via a small integrated LED that emits a warm, sunrise-like glow for 10 seconds when a phone is seated—powered by a replaceable watch battery.
Packaging
Slotted birch box with foam insert, screen-printed with a risograph-style forest scene. Includes a folded “care & lore” zine detailing the fictional Akori forest mythology.
Price & Release
Final Line
“Ten versions in, and Morning Wood still feels like a waking dream—if your dreams were designed by a woodworker with a sly sense of humor.” – Akori Studio
