About the Item
This Japanese antique cabinet was crafted in the Taisho Era (1912–1926).
Its deep black finish brings a quiet presence and a sense of depth to any space, harmonizing beautifully with both traditional Japanese interiors and modern decor. The cabinet features sliding glass doors adorned with crossbar patterns, allowing you to elegantly display your cherished items while keeping them protected.
The body is made of cedar wood, while the drawer fronts are crafted from katsura wood, a Japanese hardwood known for its smooth grain and gentle color. This thoughtful combination of materials adds subtle contrast and depth to the overall appearance.
Additionally, it includes drawers that are convenient for organizing smaller items, offering both aesthetic beauty and practical functionality. The overall simple form and subtle irregularities that reflect the hand of the artisan embody the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, which finds beauty in impermanence, imperfection, and the passage of time.
The natural texture of the wood, small scratches, and gentle signs of aging lend this cabinet a unique charm and a calm elegance. Beyond serving as storage furniture, it stands as an object that quietly brings a sense of history and tranquility into your living space.
Cleaned and disinfected with a non-toxic solution.
The doors and drawers move smoothly.
As an antique piece, minor scratches and marks may be present, each adding to its unique charm and the story it tells over time. It has been carefully inspected and remains in excellent antique condition, with natural signs of age that enhance its character.
