Japanese Tansu Style Night Stand Custom-Order Reference

SKU#: 130102

This pictured piece is a custom-order reference example and is not available for purchase. It is a Japanese tansu style night stand with documented dimensions of 17”W x 17”D x 26”H, made of Kiri wood with a teak finish.

Inspired by the look of traditional Japanese tansu cabinetry, this compact night stand combines bedside function with the bold hardware-style accents and practical compartment layout associated with the tansu form. The front shows two small upper drawers, one wider drawer below, and a lower cabinet area with sliding lattice-style doors, creating a balanced design that offers a mix of concealed bedside storage.

Design Notes

Tansu is a Japanese term commonly used for cabinetry and storage furniture. In this night stand, the tansu style is expressed through the rectilinear form, contrasting corner accents, drawer pulls, and sliding lower doors. The proportions suit use beside a bed while still providing multiple storage zones for smaller personal items.

The warm teak finish highlights the clean, straightforward presentation of the Kiri wood. Side ring pulls are also present, reinforcing the traditional tansu-inspired look while adding decorative character to the cabinet's profile.
