Japanese Antique Black Tansu 1920s-1940s / Cabinet Sideboard Wabisabi
About the Item
This is a black tansu made in Japan.
It was made in the early Showa period (1920s-1940s) and still retains its beauty and practicality through the ages.
The material used is cedar wood, and the light yet solid construction is attractive.
The overall design embodies the Japanese aesthetic of "simplicity.
The linear composition and subdued black tones give the space a quiet presence.
The front lattice door is particularly eye-catching. The fine shading is beautiful, and the expression changes depending on the angle of view.
The sliding door opens and closes smoothly, making daily use stress-free.
It has been carefully cleaned, so it can be used immediately without worry.
This is a piece of furniture that has a time-honored taste that oozes out of its antiquity.
This furniture, which is imbued with the spirit of wabi-sabi, fits well not only in Japanese spaces but also in modern interiors.
Weight: approx. 25 kg

Our Philosophy
Objects always tell the truth.
All I can do is just to face with them sincerely and give
them deep affection as much as I can.
There is no boundary of nationalities and of eras in beauty.
But I think now is the time we choose 'Japanese style' and it
will be the best way to remind us of what we are losing
today and to question us about an essence of beauty again.
I hope that you can touch the memories which the objects here have,
feel and think of something invisible but exists undoubtedly.
