Antique Japanese Isho Kasane Kimono Tansu
type: Product
description: A refined example of Japanese cabinetry, this elegant two-section Isho Kasane Kimono Tansu is masterfully crafted entirely from paulownia (Kiri) wood, prized for its light weight, dimensional stability, and natural resistance to moisture and insects—qualities that made it the preferred wood for preserving fine silk kimonos. The chest features four spacious full-width drawers arranged in a traditional two-piece (Kasane) configuration, allowing each section to be transported independently. Its minimalist aesthetic is accentuated by hand-forged iron corner fittings, side carrying handles, and recessed drawer pulls, all finished in a deep black patina that contrasts beautifully with the warm grain of the naturally aged kiri wood. Clean architectural lines and restrained hardware embody the timeless elegance of Meiji-period design. Constructed using traditional Japanese joinery, this tansu offers exceptional craftsmanship and practical storage while serving as a sophisticated statement piece for both traditional and contemporary interiors. An outstanding addition for collectors of Japanese antiques, designers, or anyone seeking authentic Meiji-period furniture with enduring beauty and functionality. Age: Late Meiji Era (circa 1900-1910) Dimensions: 37″ wide by 16 1/4″ deep by 43″ high
