About the Item

This is an old small drawer storage made in Japan. The furniture was made during the Meiji period (1860s-1900s), and the texture of the wood over the years gives it a deep flavor. The frame is made of zelkova wood with a strong and attractive grain, and the drawer surfaces appear to be made of chestnut wood. The combination with the iron handles is exquisite and gives a quiet presence to the overall balance. The design is extremely simple. The beauty of “simplicity” stands out with its linear structure and no waste. The appearance of the piece, which does not make an excessive statement, yet gives off a certain character, is the very embodiment of the spirit of Wabi-Sabi. All six drawers open and close smoothly, indicating that they have been carefully maintained. The small size is one of its main attractions. It can be used as a bedside nightstand or an accent piece in an entryway. It is a quiet supporting piece that adds calmness and character to your space. It has been cleaned and is safe to use. Weight: 13.5 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.
