Invite a captivating splash of color and rich history into your home with this striking antique Japanese Tansu chest, measuring a versatile 35 inches wide, 15 inches deep, and standing 35 inches high. This authentic piece of Japanese craftsmanship features a unique and vibrant red-orange painted finish, imbued with the beautiful patina of age and use. Tansu are traditional Japanese mobile storage chests, designed for portability and multi-functional use within a home or even aboard ships. This particular Tansu is a wonderful example, combining various storage options within its compact form: multiple drawers (three on the left, one long one at the bottom, and one on the right), a central double-door cabinet, and a convenient open display shelf at the top. This clever configuration provides ample and varied storage for all your treasures.
The chest is further adorned with original, robust iron hardware, including decorative corner braces, intricate drawer pulls, and traditional locking mechanisms. The dark metalwork provides a striking contrast against the warm red-orange painted finish, which shows appealing wear consistent with its age, revealing hints of the wood beneath and adding to its authentic character.
