Vintage Japanese Tsugaru-nuri Lacquer Table Board, 1950s, Showa Era (SKU 25D-124)

Showa-era urushi table board with rich mottled red-brown finish

This vintage Japanese table board, or oshiki, features a striking mottled lacquer surface in deep red and earthy brown tones. The low, square form with a subtly raised rim was traditionally used for serving shared dishes or as an elegant base for tea utensils, flower arrangements, or seasonal displays in a tatami room.

The surface shows a dense, almost stone-like speckled pattern characteristic of mid-Showa decorative lacquer work, giving the board a warm, understated presence. Its flat profile makes it equally suitable today as a minimalist coffee table top on floor cushions, a display platform for ceramics, or a distinctive tray on a sideboard.

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.
