Vintage Japanese Misu, Bamboo, Showa Era (SKU 25D-572)

Showa-period misu bamboo sudare with elegant kumihimo tassel tie

This vintage Japanese misu bamboo blind is finely woven from slim, evenly spaced slats, creating a warm, translucent screen that softens light while preserving privacy. The upper edge is finished with a brocade-style fabric border in a classic floral motif, echoing the refined taste of traditional Japanese interiors from the Showa era.

Suspended at the center is an ornate kumihimo cord tie, featuring a decorative knot and twin tassels framed by a pair of carved hooks, adding a subtle yet luxurious accent to the otherwise minimalist bamboo surface. Ideal as a sudare room divider, window shade, or alcove backdrop, this misu bamboo piece brings an authentic touch of Japanese design to 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.
