Old Japanese Desk Edo-Meiji Period '1800s' Chestnut Antique Table/Low Table
$1,500
About
We Japanese introduce unique items with unique aesthetics, purchasing routes, and ways that no one can imitate.
A desk made in Japan from the latter half of the Edo period to the Meiji period.
In old Japan, people used to sit on the floor to eat and study.
This is a desk mainly for studying and office work.
In the Edo period, there was a facility to teach study.
The name of the facility is called "Terakoya".
Here the children were learning to read and write.
Such a desk was also used there.
It is also used in stores.
And this is a desk made of chestnut wood.
Generally, cedar and zelkova are used, but chestnut wood is used for this. It's very rare.
And the grain of chestnut wood is beautiful.
It's cracked, but I think it was cracked by drying in the past.
The design is thin and beautiful.
There are few such beautiful desks in Japan.
The condition is relatively good.
An item that you can show off to your friends.
I would recommend this with confidence.
