Antique Japanese Kyodai Mirror (SKU 25D-189)

Taishō-era dresser mirror (kyōdai) with drawers and Mt. Fuji cut-out motif

This charming antique Japanese mirror stand, or kyōdai, combines everyday practicality with understated Taishō-period elegance. Crafted in warm-toned hardwood with a rich patina, it features a tilting rectangular mirror set above a compact chest fitted with multiple small drawers, ideal for storing combs, cosmetics, and treasured accessories.

Beneath the mirror, a delicate openwork panel depicts a stylized landscape, likely Mt. Fuji with flanking hills, adding a subtle decorative flourish typical of early 20th-century design. Original metal drawer pulls and side hardware, together with honest wear, give this piece authentic character, making it a versatile accent for a vanity, entryway, or display of Japanese antiques.

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer antiques that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.

We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.

All vintage and antique items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
