Vintage Japanese Tea Ceremony Stand — Showa Era Bamboo & Wood Shelf (SKU: 25M-576-6)
A Graceful Perch for the Ritual of Stillness

This vintage Japanese tea ceremony stand (茶道棚 / sadō-dana) from the 1980s Showa era is a quiet yet refined tribute to the art of presentation and harmony. Small in stature but rich in presence, it was designed to cradle utensils and wares during the tea ceremony, elevating them both physically and spiritually in accordance with traditional Japanese aesthetics.

Crafted from dark-stained wood with softly grooved edges and supported by slender bamboo pillars, the piece exudes a balanced rhythm between rustic simplicity and formal elegance. Its open-frame structure creates a sense of spaciousness and intention, allowing each object placed upon it to breathe with dignity and grace. Whether used in a tea room, on a tokonoma display, or repurposed as a unique interior accent, this stand brings the mindfulness of chadō into modern life.
