About the Item

This account is operated by five different companies. As for me, I specialize in Japanese antiques and carefully selected items. With 20 years of experience, I re-propose Japanese antiques from a new perspective. This is a very old drawer storage made in Japan. Furniture from the Meiji era. (1860s-1920s). The material is cedar wood. The metal fittings are made of iron. The design is simple and lean. Characterized by a rusticity and ruggedness unique to Japan. It shows that it has been carefully reworked and handled with care many times. The grain and color unique to cedar wood are wonderful. The repair with tinplate on the lower part of the back is also a good accent. It has been carefully maintained so as not to spoil the good atmosphere of being used. The entire furniture and the interior of the drawer storage have been washed and sanitized with water. All drawers open and close smoothly. You can use it with peace of mind. It is in best condition with no insect infestation. This piece of furniture evokes the spirit of wabi-sabi, the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence. It is the opposite of vulgarity. This is a unique and very rare item. Weight 26 kg. Since ancient times, people have created and passed down necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the severe struggle against nature, and have nurtured a lifestyle culture. By using these objects over a long period of time, they accumulate a flavor and reflect a way of life. In today's world, where cheap and disposable items are encouraged, the act of repeatedly re-creating things around us by modifying them opens up a new world. With this philosophy in mind, we collect beautiful, powerful, and unique carefully selected antiquities from Japan.
