Vintage Japanese Shoji Ranma Panel Set, Pine, Sakura, Crane & Turtle Motif, Showa Period (25M-435)
A stunning example of traditional Japanese joinery and symbolic design, this 5-piece panel set from the early Showa period (1950s) brings timeless elegance to any interior. The set includes four vertical Shoji panels and one horizontal Ranma transom, crafted from fine Hinoki (Japanese cypress) and showcasing intricate handwork.
The Shoji panels together depict a graceful seasonal landscape:
A majestic pine tree anchors the scene, complemented by delicate sakura (cherry blossom) branches and bamboo leaves, symbolizing strength, renewal, and harmony. Nestled within this natural setting, a crane in flight and a turtle near water reflect classic themes of longevity and good fortune.
Above, the horizontal Ranma panel features finely constructed kumiko lattice work—an interlocking woodwork technique known for its geometric precision and beauty. It adds a refined architectural element while allowing light and air to pass through.
