About the Item

This account is made up of five companies, I specialize in selecting carefully selected items, specializing in Japanese antiques. Based on my 20 years of experience, I offer a unique perspective on Japanese antiques. Old Japanese bamboo shelves. This furniture is from the Showa period (1940s to 1960s). It is composed of bamboo and cedar wood. This was a shelf for the tea utensils of sencha tea ceremony. This furniture is mainly placed in Japanese-style rooms with tatami mats. Its delicate construction is a perfect example of Japanese aesthetics. The characteristics of bamboo are beautifully utilized in this tasteful furniture. It is a very delicate structure, so it is not designed to put heavy things on it. display your favorite lightweight objects. Due to its structure, there will be some swaying. (See the video for more details.) This item evokes the spirit of wabi-sabi, the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence. It is a modest and humble beauty, the beauty of the unconventional, the opposite of vulgarity. This is a unique and very rare item. Weight 6 kg. Since ancient times, people have created and passed down necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the severe struggle against nature, and have nurtured a lifestyle culture. By using these objects over a long period of time, they accumulate a flavor and reflect a way of life. The more severe the natural environment and the weaker we are, the stronger their power becomes. In today's world, where cheap and disposable products are encouraged, the act of repeatedly re-creating the things around us by modifying them opens up a new world. With this philosophy in mind, we collect beautiful, powerful, and unique carefully selected antiquities from Japan.
