Japanese antique Rustic Board/1868-1920/a Board like an Abstract Painting
About the Item
This is a work board made in Japan around the Meiji period to the early Taisho period (1868-1920).
The material is willow.
It is a tool that was used in areas around Kita Kanto Tochigi Prefecture, Gunma Prefecture, and Nagano Prefecture.
This board is mainly used for cutting vegetables.
The name is "Kate-Kiri-Ban".
The meaning of the name is "Kate" = food, "Kiri" = cut, "Ban" = board
It is like the cutting board that people use on a daily basis in their daily lives.
I used to cut leafy vegetables on this board.
However, the meaning of "kate" has a deeper meaning in Japanese.
It has the meaning of the original source for living and the important thing for carrying out life activities.
In times when stable food could not be secured, daily food was very important.
I think that the reason why the edge is made on this board is to prevent the cut food from spilling.
It can be said that this board was also an important tool that supported people's lives.
The material is probably chestnut or oak.
The wood grain is clear and it is very beautiful and can be displayed on the wall like an abstract painting.
It is an artistic item.
You can also enjoy it on the floor like a display stand.
How about displaying this splendid item by all means?
It weighs 7.25 kg.
