About the Item
A small Japanese wooden chest of drawers (kodansu), dating from the early 20th century. With two finely made drawers, the front panels are decorated in delicate lacquer work, depicting seasonal flowers and a small bird in flight. The natural wood surface has aged to a soft, silvery tone, contrasting beautifully with the subtle lacquer decoration.
Compact yet evocative, this chest reflects the Japanese appreciation for craftsmanship and nature-inspired motifs. It can serve as a functional storage piece for jewelry, accessories, or desk items, or simply as a decorative accent with wabi-sabi charm.
