A fantastic Japanese Tansu chest in original condition, crafted from richly grained cedar and adorned with traditional iron hardware. This two-part chest features multiple drawers and compartments, each fitted with ornate black metal handles and decorative mounts showcasing circular and floral motifs. The ironwork is all original, with side-mounted carry handles—one set designed to flip up and secure the upper section to the base.
Over years of use, the chest has acquired subtle imperfections that only enhance its character and authenticity. A fine example of Meiji-period craftsmanship, it offers both aesthetic appeal and practical storage, making it a striking addition to any interior.
All measurements are done to the widest point .
