Japanese Antique Drawer with Bookcase 1860s-1920s / Nightstand Wabisabi

About the Item

This is a drawer storage with an attached book stand made in Japan. It was produced between the Meiji and Taisho periods (1860s-1920s). This antique furniture reflects the Japanese lifestyle and aesthetic sense of the time. The material used is paulownia wood, which is light, easy to handle, and resistant to moisture. The expressive surface of the wood, which has been used for many years, oozes a unique texture born of the passage of time, adding depth and serenity to the space. Its compact size makes it ideal for use as a bedside nightstand. It is perfect for storing books or small items that you are about to read, making it easy to use. The entire piece has been cleaned for hygiene. The drawers open and close smoothly, making daily use stress-free. The spirit of “wabi-sabi,” which respects change over time, comes to life in this piece. It blends naturally into a modern space and subtly expresses the Japanese sense of beauty. Weight: 3 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.
