Traditional Japanese Tansu Storage Cabinet, Taishō Period.
Exquisite paulownia wood Japanese cabinet (tansu) from the Taishō period.
Dimensions: height 48 cm, width 60.5 cm, depth 30 cm.
This decorative piece of furniture features five drawers and a storage compartment with sliding doors.
An authentic Japanese piece of furniture, stunning in any type of interior.
Due to its size, this tansu is exceptionally suitable for displaying plants, ceramics, and small objects.
Such tansu were once found in every Japanese household. As living spaces were small and people lived in a seated position, furniture was also small. Often, furniture needed to be easily movable, hence the frequent use of durable, lightweight paulownia wood.
A piece of furniture with a story, a slice of history that brings Japan a little closer!
