Antique Japanese Kimono Chest — 1920s, Taisho Era (SKU: 25M-A326)
An Heirloom of Order and Grace

Practicality meets artistry in this striking multi-drawer tansu chest, a Taisho-era masterpiece designed to hold life's essentials with grace. Its vertical arrangement of drawers—varying in size and depth—reflects a keen understanding of space and need. A key dangles from one of the locks, a silent guardian of secrets once stored inside.
