About the Item
This is a wall decoration using an old Japanese door.
It is thought to date from the Edo to Meiji period.
Originally it was a very heavy door with earth and plaster on the surface, but we removed all the earth and plaster to reveal the bamboo inside.
This was used for the door of an old warehouse called "kura". In Japan, old "kura" is considered a symbol of wealth. Warehouses have been used not only to store food, but also to store important books, treasures, and things that have been passed down from generation to generation, but their number is decreasing due to aging.
The base is made of bamboo and pampas grass woven into a lattice pattern, called "takekomai", and is fixed with hemp string (hemp or ramie).
It is also recommended to use a door used in a Japanese "kura" to decorate the wall like an abstract painting using natural materials.
