About the Item

This workbench was made in Japan from the late Meiji period to the early Showa period and was used by farmers. It was used by farmers in Nagano Prefecture. And this is the perfect size to use as a stool, so you can use it in the entryway to put on your shoes or in the living room. Originally, this workbench was used to beat cloth with a wooden stick after weaving it to make it softer or to polish it. There are also cuts on the side of this workbench, so it seems that it was used for some kind of work by lying on its side. It looks very cool and has a wabi-sabi atmosphere. The condition is that there is wood corrosion on the bottom. Small pieces of wood may come out during shipping. There is no problem when using it as a stool. Also, there is some wobbling, but it's not noticeable. If you are concerned about this, please attach a hard sponge to the bottom. This item is rare and difficult to obtain. This is a recommended item. Weight: 27.75kg [We offer Japanese antique furniture and tools that are different from the Japanese antique furniture and art that have been appreciated abroad. These tools were used in private homes and farmhouses in the past. They have been passed through a long time and have an attractive taste. The reality is that many of these items are now being discarded along with the demolition of houses. We are on a mission to re-evaluate these fascinating old objects and preserve them for future generations. And we have seen tens of thousands of items so far. We have used that experience to list the most fascinating items here. We can do this because of our long experience. We will rediscover the "beauty" produced in the life and culture of the common people, which is different from the Japanese art and culture that is known and scattered around the world, and present it to the world. ]
