About the Item

This is an old primitive chair discovered in Japan. Details of this chair are unknown. It is also possible that it was not produced in Japan, but was brought over from East Asia or Southeast Asia. The year and country in which it was produced are all unknown, but the atmosphere is wonderful. This is one of the wabi-sabi items that goes well with Japanese antiques and African antiques. It is rustic and tasteful, and gives a sense of the world of "Wabi Sabi".
