Vintage Japanese Kamakura Carving Small Drawer (SKU 25D-247)

Showa-era carved lacquer drawer chest with bold floral relief

This compact vintage Japanese small drawer chest features a striking carved peony motif in deep red-brown and black, typical of mid–Showa sensibilities. The front is worked in high relief, with each drawer face seamlessly integrated into the overall design so the pattern flows uninterrupted across the cabinet.

Ideal as a tansu-style accessory for storing jewelry, calligraphy tools, or everyday desk items, it brings the warmth of traditional carved lacquerware to a modern interior. The strong graphic carving and glossy surface give this piece presence despite its modest size, making it a versatile accent for shelves, tokonoma, or bedside use.

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.
