Japanese Kimono Tansu Chest Custom-Order Reference in Kiri Wood

Japanese Kimono Tansu Chest custom-order reference. This pictured example is kept as a reference for past Eastern Classics custom work and is not available for purchase. Documented as a Japanese tansu style kimono chest, it measures 42"W x 18"D x 68"H and is made of kiri wood with a clear finish.

Design and Function

A kimono tansu is a Japanese storage chest designed for clothing, especially folded garments. This tall example combines upper cabinet storage behind a pair of doors with lower drawers, creating flexible space for organizing kimono, accessories, and other folded textiles. The clean kiri wood grain and light clear finish give the piece a bright, understated appearance, while the dark hardware adds visual definition at the corners, pulls, and door fittings.

The photographed example shows two upper doors opening to a shelved interior on one side, with multiple drawers arranged below. This combination of enclosed shelving and drawers supports the documented kimono-chest function while offering varied storage for folded garments and smaller items.
