Japanese Antique Vertical Chest Of Drawers, Meiji Era'1868-1912', Wabi Sabi

About the Item

This is a Japanese vertical chest of drawers crafted during the Meiji era (1868–1912). This chest of drawers is designed with vertical proportions that make it stand out in both functionality and aesthetics. Its 10 neatly arranged shallow drawers are perfect for organizing small items, documents, and stationery. The wood has aged gracefully over time, developing a rich texture and unique patina. Faded areas and small scratches reflect its long history, adding character and charm that cannot be replicated. This piece blends practicality with a timeless presence, making it a perfect addition to any living space. As an antique piece, minor scratches and marks may be present, each adding to its unique charm and the story it tells over time. Cleaned and disinfected with non-toxic solution. The drawers moves smoothly. We have conducted a meticulous check for any broken or damaged areas, and the result is absolutely problem-free. It is in excellent condition.
