Antique Japanese Small Chest with Four Drawers — 1920s, Taisho Era
A Timeless Storage Gem from Japan’s Elegant Taisho Period

This petite yet character-rich antique Japanese chest from the 1920s Taisho Era embodies the quiet beauty of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. Built from solid wood and finished in a deep russet lacquer, the chest features four evenly sized drawers with charming iron handles and a metal loop at the top—perhaps once used to secure or carry the piece, adding to its story.

Its vertical form makes it a versatile companion for organizing tools, art supplies, or stationery, while also functioning beautifully as a decorative accent on desks, entry tables, or dressers. The simple yet refined design reflects the Taisho era’s shift toward modern aesthetics, making it a subtle statement piece that bridges utility and elegance.
