Japanese antique wooden low table/1868-1920/Wabi-Sabi sofa table

About the Item

Introducing a lovely low table with a wabi-sabi feel. This low table is a combination of wooden planks made between the Meiji and Taisho periods. The base part is made from a brazier used in the Meiji and Taisho periods. The top plate was used by a farmer for working purposes and was stored in the attic for a long time and was not used, There are cracks in the top plate, but these will not progress further. The cracks are slightly raised, please see detailed images. These top plates are hard to find. The combination of these two wonderful items makes a fabulous low table. Please note that the top and base are not fixed together. Also, as it is old, there is some wobble. Rubber sponges and felt stickers are included and should be attached to the gaps to stabilise it. Recommended product.

  • Japanese Old Wooden Box 1868-1900 / Antique Storage Sofa Table Coffee Table Side
    Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
    The wooden box made from the Meiji period to the Taisho period (1868-1900). The wooden box made by combining simple cedar boards. I think it was a box that contained some tools. For many years, soot from the hearth and other parts stuck together and accumulated, resulting in such a black appearance. Don't worry, this soot won't stick to your hands if you touch it. It has a very beautiful black color overall and a simple shape. Good condition. It is a nice wooden box that makes you feel very wabisabi. It is also nice to use as a table or exhibition stand. Things like this are not everywhere. It's rare. Also, in Japan, such things are becoming less and less common. We believe that it is our mission to convey the charm of such old things and keep them. There are few stores that sell such items at 1st dibs. We sell with...
