About the Item

This is a wooden workbench used by Japanese lacquer craftsmen when they used lacquer. It is thought to have been used in the northern Kanto and Tohoku regions. The period is approximately 1900 to 1950.50. And while most lacquerware production tables are relatively long and larger, this one is small. We don't know what kind of work was done specifically, but since there is lacquer on the staff and legs, we can assume that some kind of painting work was done on this. This workbench was handmade and is thought to have been made of pine wood. It gives a very rustic and rather powerful impression. It is an item that gives the impression of a primitive ruin, with long and thin stone slabs stacked on top of a very large stone slab. It is small but powerful. There is a slight twist in the chi, but it can be used as a stand for small vases, etc. Items like this are hard to come by. This is a rare item. Size: W47.3‐48.3cm, D32.3cm, H15‐16cm Weight: 6.55kg [We, Brood, are a company consisting of four different stores with four different brands. We offer a wide range of attractive items from all over the world with a focus on Japanese items. We offer Japanese antique furniture and tools that are different from the Japanese antique furniture and art that have been appreciated abroad. These tools were used in private homes and farmhouses in the past. They have been passed through a long time and have an attractive taste. The reality is that many of these items are now being discarded along with the demolition of houses. We are on a mission to re-evaluate these fascinating old objects and preserve them for future generations. And we have seen tens of thousands of items so far. We have used that experience to list the most fascinating items here. We can do this because of our long experience. We will rediscover the "beauty" produced in the life and culture of the common people, which is different from the Japanese art and culture that is known and scattered around the world, and present it to the world. ]
