About the Item
This is an old wooden chair believed to have been made between the Meiji and Taisho periods, or perhaps the early Showa period. Its simple yet distinctive design is eye-catching, evoking its antique presence.
The seat is constructed in a lattice pattern, a unique structure that suggests it may have originally been a reused part of another tool. The latticework is primarily made of sturdy oak, with some cedar mixed in. The gradations of color and grain over time speak to the refined character of the piece.
The curved legs are thought to have been finished using bentwood techniques, demonstrating the skill of the artisans of the time. The seat is uneven, and may feel a little stiff when you sit on it, but its structure is truly unique and imbues it with a strong personality.
If this bothers you, you can place a cushion or something similar underneath.
While two of the reinforcements at the bottom of the legs are missing, the chair remains strong and stable, allowing for safe use. When incorporated into any interior, it exudes a sense of art, blending seamlessly with modern, minimalist interiors, as well as traditional Japanese or traditional Japanese-style rooms.
This chair combines the depth of aged wood with a unique, one-of-a-kind feel. We confidently recommend it to antique lovers.

[Our Social Role]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are a specialized team dealing in antiques and vintage items, comprised of stores based on three distinct brands. While focusing on Japanese items, we also offer a carefully curated selection of attractive goods from around the world—each evoking the culture and history of its country of origin.
Unlike the traditional Japanese antique furniture and art that have been appreciated overseas until now, we shine a light on the tools and furniture that were used for many years in ordinary Japanese homes and farmhouses. These objects have gained a unique charm over time, their beauty deepened by the history accumulated through daily life. In today’s world, however, many of these precious items are discarded during home demolitions. We are committed to reassessing their value and passing them on to future generations.
Drawing from our extensive experience—having seen tens of thousands of items through direct purchases, markets, and auction houses—we carefully select and present only the most captivating pieces. This is something made possible only through the years of knowledge and expertise we have cultivated.
Rather than focusing on the widely known facets of Japanese art and culture, we highlight the subtle beauty born from the everyday life of common people. It is this rediscovered beauty, steeped in history, that we strive to share with the world.
