Japanese Tansu Chest, Storage & Display Piece, 1910s

Dimensions: height 50 cm, width 90 cm, depth 39 cm.

The cabinet features two spacious drawers, finished with elegant, understated lock plates (no key) and sturdy iron pulls. The wood shows a lively grain and a warm, timeworn patina, with honest signs of use that add even more character. The sides are a standout detail as well: fitted with solid carrying handles that make it easy to move.

Thanks to its low, wide proportions, this tansu also works beautifully as a contemporary display piece. Style it with ikebana, ceramics, art books, or a small selection of objects, and it instantly becomes a calm, natural base. It suits a minimalist interior perfectly, yet feels just as strong in an eclectic setting, where wood, patina and iron naturally set the tone.
