Description

A traditional Japanese kiri isho tansu chest, crafted from beautifully grained paulownia wood and designed in three stacking sections for ease of transport. The upper compartment features a pair of sliding doors fitted with circular iron hardware, opening to reveal practical storage. Below sit a series of drawers of varying sizes, each with its original iron pulls. All three sections stack securely and remain in excellent, usable condition, with age‑related marks that speak to its history without compromising structure or function. The pale, lightweight paulownia timber has developed a soft, time‑worn surface, giving the piece a warm, organic presence. A superb example of Japanese domestic furniture — tactile, architectural, and effortlessly at home in both contemporary and traditional interiors.

Here at Sinclair's Antiques and Interiors we do our utmost best to ensure all our items are described and photographed to show any flaws or damage such as shrinkage splits, losses or lifts to veneer, repairs or marks. However, giving the age and the fact that each piece will have had years of polishing to create its own individual character we cannot describe every minor mark separately and therefore recommend you either visit our warehouse or request extra photographs.
