Antique Japanese Haribako Sewing Box, Wood, Taisho Era (SKU 25S-554-3)

Compact Taisho-era style haribako with beautiful figured grain and multi-drawer storage

This charming antique Japanese small box is crafted in the manner of a haribako sewing box, with a warm honey-toned finish that highlights the lively, rippling grain of the wood.
