Rare antique Japanese Tansu furniture with remarkable and unusual proportions. This traditional Japanese chest of drawers boasts original dimensions: 28 cm wide, 41 cm deep (excluding fittings and handles) and an elegant height of 105.5 cm. Probably made to order for a specific space or designed to be easily transported thanks to its wrought iron side handles, this piece of furniture is a unique and authentic piece.

Crafted from carefully waxed hinoki wood with a lacquered front, this Tansu features three large, practical drawers and a door opening onto an interior space with three additional drawers. One of these drawers, slightly shorter, cleverly conceals a secret compartment at the back, adding a mysterious dimension to this exceptional piece.

The façade is superbly decorated with splendid embossed ironwork depicting traditional Japanese motifs with auspicious symbols: the pine tree evoking endurance, the crane symbolizing happiness and prosperity, and the Minogame turtle, a traditional emblem of longevity.

This Tansu piece of furniture is an ideal rarity for collectors of Japanese antiques or to enhance an interior with a touch of elegant originality.
