Japanese Tansu 1860s-1900s / Cabinet Sideboard Wabi Sabi
About the Item
This is a medium sized Tansu made in Japan.
Made in the Meiji period (1860s-1900s), it is a gem of history and aesthetics.
The material used is cedar wood. The drawer handles are made of iron, and their timeworn taste enhances the charm. The overall design is imbued with the spirit of “simplicity,” which is unique to Japan, and its calm appearance with a minimum of showiness gives a quiet dignity to the space.
The wood surface has been used for many years, and the expression carved over the years is evident, telling the story of good old Japanese living.
The sliding doors and drawers open and close smoothly and are practical and suitable for daily use.
It has been cleaned and is ready for immediate safe use.
It is in very good condition for furniture of this period and is a very valuable piece of antique furniture.
Weight: 13 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.
