Antique Japanese Kimono Chest — 1920s, Taisho Era
A Tower of Tradition from Japan’s Elegant Taisho Period

This stately antique Japanese kimono chest, crafted in the 1920s during the refined Taisho Era, is a commanding blend of traditional joinery and timeless design. This vertical form was originally built to store fine kimono fabrics and ceremonial garments with care and reverence.

Constructed from warm-toned native kiriwood, its linear symmetry is punctuated by bold black iron fittings, hand-forged in geometric patterns that enhance both form and structure. A series of sliding panels and drawers provide versatile storage while preserving the authentic silhouette of Japanese domestic furniture. Whether displayed in a bedroom, hallway, or studio, this piece brings functional beauty and an unmistakable air of history to your interior.

Perfect for storing linens, clothing, or treasured keepsakes, this kimono chest is more than furniture—it’s a story passed down through generations of craftsmanship.
