Description

Antique Japanese Glass Kitchen Chest (Mizuya Tansu) — 1920s, Taisho Era
A Storied Canvas of Daily Life from Japan’s Taisho Period

Commanding in presence and rich in heritage, this antique Japanese mizuya tansu from the 1920s Taisho Era is a stunning testament to both form and function. Crafted from beautifully aged hardwood, its expansive structure features upper and lower sliding glass doors that reveal generous shelving, once used to store ceramics, dry goods, and lacquerware in the traditional Japanese kitchen.

Beneath the glass display sections lies a full bank of drawers—each adorned with hand-forged iron pulls—perfect for storing utensils, textiles, or modern-day treasures. The clean lines and warm honey-brown tones evoke a timeless aesthetic, while its scale offers both visual impact and practical storage for contemporary interiors.
