Rare Japanese Antique Wooden Black Low Table/Wabisabi Sofa Table/1800s/Edo-Meiji

About the Item

This is a rare Japanese antique wood black low table made in the late Edo to Meiji period. The top is made of zelkova and the legs are made of cypress or cedar. It has a very simple design and fits in a modern space. It has been used for quite a long time, and there are fine scratches and wear on the edge of the top plate, so it seems that it was used as a workbench. It seems to be an item made in Saitama Prefecture or Gunma Prefecture. It's hard to find a desk with such a beautiful top plate expression and an all-black desk. The top plate is slightly warped and there is a slight rattle, but there is no problem in using it. Rather, despite being quite old, it can be said that the condition is good because there are no defects. A very valuable item. Highly recommended.

    Since ancient times, people have created necessary tools from familiar materials, passed them on, and nurtured a lifestyle culture in order to survive in the severe struggle against nature. Over a long period of time, the tools accumulate a certain flavor and reflect the way of life. The harsher the natural environment and the weaker the human being, the stronger the power of the tool. In today's world, where cheap and disposable products are encouraged, the act of repeatedly modifying and re-creating the things around us opens up a new world. With this philosophy in mind, we carefully select and collect beautiful, powerful, and unique Japanese antiques. This is a very old candlestick...
