Vintage Japanese Kamakura Carving Style Mirror (SKU 25D-358)

Showa-era standing mirror with carved peony and rich vermilion-and-black lacquer work

This elegant vintage Japanese standing mirror captures the refined sensibility of mid-Showa interiors. A tall rectangular glass is framed by a dark lacquered wood body, raised on sturdy splayed feet that recall traditional byōbu screen supports. The lower panel is richly carved with a bold peony motif, symbol of prosperity and beauty, emerging from a textured ground of small hexagonal scales.

The surface is finished in a deep, almost black, red lacquer that highlights the hand-tooled patterning and the layered petals of the flower. Designed for use in a dressing room, washitsu, or entryway, this Showa-era mirror adds both practical function and a strong decorative presence, blending vintage Japanese charm with a clean, vertical silhouette that suits contemporary spaces.

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.
