Rounded-Edge Kyōdai With Tamo Ash & Kiri — 1920s

Soft corners embracing a century of grace

Kurumi (Japanese walnut) veneer prances across this chest in tight burl curls, while rounded edges and a scalloped base lend a gentleness that belies the wood’s strength. A graceful oval mirror appears to float above the chest, cradled by tapering stanchions. Slip out the side key to unlock the jewelry cabinet holding silk-wrapped heirlooms or a modern smartwatch with equal poise.

Light catches the rippled grain like sunlight on river stones—a reminder that beauty often sits in quiet eddies, not rushing streams.
