Japanese antique large wooden low table/1868-1920/long table/Mingei

About the Item

A large low table made in Japan from the Meiji to the early Taisho period (1868-1920). Originally, it seems that it was a work table for sitting and doing some work. There are countless small scratches on the surface of the top plate, which I think is the proof. Japanese farmers had many tools of this kind. However, most of them are made of boards, and there are no table-shaped ones. I think that the wood of the top plate is probably cedar wood. The meaning of heaven is blackish brown. It is a very cool low table. There is one place where the crack was glued to the tip of the foot. Please have a look at the photos. In addition, the top board is hardly warped, and it can be said that the condition is very good. Can be used as a sofa table or center table. . This is a highly recommended item that is hard to come by. If you want something special, we recommend purchasing items selected by Brood. We sell carefully selected old Japanese items.
