Antique Japanese Folding Chabudai Table — Carved Lacquered Wood, 1920s, Taishō Era (SKU 25M-520-1)
Swirling patterns echo the wind through ancient pines

This masterfully carved folding table from the Taishō era evokes the spirit of early 20th-century Japan—a time of subtle innovation and timeless aesthetic restraint. Designed for use in traditional washitsu interiors, its surface is alive with motion: swirling pine-needle patterns etched into rich layers of lacquer, catching light like ripples in a forest pond.

The low form of this chabudai invites presence and harmony. Its gently rounded rectangular silhouette, coupled with foldable black lacquered legs, speaks to the Japanese concept of beauty in functionality. As a table for tea, ikebana display, or quiet gatherings, it embodies the seasonal rhythm of life—ready to unfold when needed and disappear gracefully when not.
