Description

Antique Japanese Sewing Box (SKU 25D-242)

TAisho-era wooden itomaki-bako with rich grain and practical multi-drawer storage.

This compact Japanese sewing box, or haribako, is crafted in warm-toned hardwood with a striking, undulating grain that recalls the bold patterns of antique tansu cabinetry. Three front drawers with iron pull handles offer organized storage, while the lidded top section opens to reveal divided compartments for threads, needles, and small notions.

Beautifully proportioned and quietly functional, this Showa-period piece works equally well today as a desktop organizer, jewelry chest, or entryway catch-all. The time-softened patina, traditional joinery, and original metal hardware give it the authentic character collectors seek, while its clean lines suit both classic and contemporary interiors.

A versatile antique haribako that brings the quiet charm of Japanese craftsmanship to any space.

 

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.
