Japanese Antique Drawer / Tansu Peddler Chest of drawers / 1868-1912s Wabi-Sabi
About the Item
This is an old Japanese drawer.
I think it is a called "Peddler's Tansu", which is used by merchants to carry goods far away.
"Peddler" refers to carrying and retailing products without having a store.
It seems to be around the Meiji period (1868-1912s), and it seems to have been used while repeatedly restoring it.
It is made of cedar, and the front of the drawer peels off the paint due to friction due to aging, and each has a different artistic expression.
One of them is remade of different wood, so the color is different, but it has changed to a unique expression over many years.
This is a valuable thing that can only be born over time, and I think it can't be made by human hands.
It is narrow in width and in a deep shape, and it fits very well if you decorate a pottery on the top.
We recommend incorporating the beauty of nature created over a long period of time into the space and incorporating it into the interior that feels like wabisabi.
