Description

Vintage Japanese Kyodai Mirror, 1940s, Showa Era (SKU 25D-375-1)

Showa-era Japanese tri-fold vanity mirror with compact storage base

This vintage Japanese mirror is a beautifully engineered kyōdai style vanity from the mid-Showa period, combining clean modernist lines with the warmth of richly figured wood grain. The upright tri-fold mirror section pivots and opens to reveal three beveled glass panels, allowing for versatile angles while grooming or arranging hair.

Beneath, a low rectangular base houses three smoothly sliding drawers, ideal for organizing cosmetics, combs, and small accessories. When the mirror wings are folded flat, the piece becomes a compact chest, making it easy to place atop a tansu, dresser, or directly on tatami in a traditional Japanese interior.

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.
