About the Item
This is an old storage cabinet made in Japan.
It is a piece of furniture made between the Meiji and Taisho periods (1860s-1920s), and it is a piece of furniture that has passed through time along with the Japanese lifestyle and culture. The material used is cedar wood, and its soft and warm bark gives the whole piece a calm look. The drawer handles are made of iron.
The design is very rustic and simple. The design is very rustic and simple, with a lean structure that eliminates ornamentation, yet has an appearance of dignity. The structure of the upper and lower lattice and board door configurations and the three drawers at the bottom is a beautiful balance of ease of use and visual rhythm.
The furniture has been carefully reworked and cared for over the years, and one can clearly see that it has been used with great care. The scuffs and scratches on the surface are not mere deterioration, but rather a reflection of the memories of its former life.
Both the sliding doors and drawers open and close smoothly, and they are still fully functional as practical furniture today. It is a versatile item that can be used as a storage or display cabinet. The interior has been carefully cleaned for your peace of mind.
There is nothing fancy about this shelf. However, it is imbued with a quiet beauty that has not been lost over time and a functional beauty rooted in daily life. This is a relaxing piece that evokes the spirit of wabi-sabi.
Weight: approx. 20 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.
