About the Item

This is a very old side table made in Japan. This furniture is from the Meiji period (1860s-1920s). It is made of cedar wood. It has a well-honed design with straight lines only. It is a Japanese style furniture with a combination of simplicity and ruggedness. The trapezoidal shape is beautiful and distinctive. It may be used for various purposes. It is in good condition and strong enough to be used as a display stand or a bench. This furniture evokes the spirit of wabi-sabi, the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence. It is the opposite of vulgarity, the beauty of modesty and modesty, the beauty of the unconventional. This is a unique and very rare item. Size of top surface 1150mm x 320mm Weight 13 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. In today's world, where cheap and disposable items are encouraged, the act of repeatedly re-creating 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.
