1910s-20s Japanese antique 2 tier large glass cabinet. wabi sabi organic

About the Item

from Kanto area, Japan. This large, 2 tier wooden glass cabinet is a product of 1910s - 20s (Taisho period) estimate from the style, conditions. Each tier can use both stacking vertically also individually. The antique wavy glasses remains in sliding doors (see pictures), and the original Urushi lacquer remains, partly fade by age. Also there're the signs of attached papers like the silhouettes, giving a taste of wabi sabi, which are bringing us to the era that is originally used. Made of premium quality Sugi cedar close to the heartwood, it's still durable enough for actual use. Also, the shelf in the lower tier & bottom is thin-lacquered with traditional Urushi lacquer, it gives a smooth touch, certain durability and unique, deep colors. The sliding doors & drawers open & close smoothly. Additionally, I can add the extra shelf (board) to the upper tier, made of vintage matching wood for $100. Feel free to ask me if you'd like to add. *** We're eco-friendly, organic-oriented vintage wood furniture & fitting seller.
