Japanese Antique Tansu 1860s-1920s / Chest of Drawer Wabi Sabi
About the Item
This account is operated by four different companies.
I, on the other hand, specialize in Japanese antiques and selected items.
With 20 years of experience, I am re-proposing Japanese antiques from a new perspective.
This is a very old Tansu made in Japan.
This furniture is from the Meiji era. (1860s to 1920s).
The material is mainly cedar wood, and only the surface of the drawer storage is made of chestnut wood.
The design is very simple and lean.
This simplicity embodies Japan.
The lattice sliding door creates shadows and a beautiful scene.
It has been used, blackened, and has a tasteful texture.
Careful and careful maintenance has been carried out so as not to spoil its beauty over time.
The sliding doors open and close very smoothly.
Drawer storage opens and closes very smoothly.
The entire furniture has been washed with water and disinfected.
You can use it with peace of mind.
This Tansu reminds me of the spirit of Wabi-Sabi, the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence.
It is a modest and humble beauty, the beauty of the unconventional, the opposite of vulgarity.
This is a unique and very rare item.
Weight 23 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.
