Japanese Antique Low Partition "結界" 1860s-1900s / Wabi Sabi
About the Item
This is an old low partition made in Japan.
The furniture is from the Meiji period (1860s-1900s).
It is made of cedar wood.
In Japanese Kanji, it is called “結界” .
It is a partition, “Do not enter from here” or “Barrier (to protect)”.
Since it can be opened and closed, an L-shaped partition can also be installed, making it versatile in use.
The lattice design creates beautiful shadows when light hits it.
This item evokes the spirit of wabi-sabi, the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence.
It is a modest and humble beauty, the beauty of the unconventional, the opposite of vulgarity.
This is a unique and very rare item.
Weight 6 kg.
Since ancient times, people have created and passed down necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the severe struggle against nature, and have nurtured a lifestyle culture.
By using these objects over a long period of time, they accumulate a flavor and reflect a way of life.
In today's world, where cheap and disposable items are encouraged, the act of repeatedly re-creating things around us by modifying them opens up a new world.
With this philosophy in mind, we collect beautiful, powerful, and unique carefully selected antiquities from Japan.
