Japanese Antique Rustic Stool 1900s-1940s / Side Table Wabi Sabi

About the Item

This account is made up of five companies, I specialize in selecting carefully selected items, specializing in Japanese antiques. Based on my 20 years of experience, I offer a unique perspective on Japanese antiques. This is a very old rustic style stool made in Japan. This furniture is from the early Showa period (1900s-1940s). It is made of zelkova wood. The grain of the zelkova wood is very beautiful. It is a square block with little round legs attached to it, giving it a humorous design. It is unique and extremely rare. It weighs 10.5 kg. Since ancient times, people have created and inherited necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the severe struggle against nature, and have nurtured a lifestyle culture. Over a long period of use, they accumulate a flavor and reflect a way of life. The harsher the natural environment and the weaker human beings are, the stronger their power becomes. In today's world, where cheap and disposable products are encouraged, the act of repeatedly modifying and re-creating the things around us opens up a new world. With this philosophy in mind, we have carefully selected a collection of beautiful, powerful, and unique antiques from Japan.
