Questions About Japanese Meiji Desk
  • What is a Japanese desk called?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024
    What a Japanese desk is called depends on its style. A chabudai is a short work desk that rests on folding legs, making it easy to transport. Zens are another type of portable desk that resembles a tray. People commonly use them both for dining and work. Another type of desk is the kotatsu. This desk features a frame that rests over a heater and has a soft cloth cover. A tabletop sits on top of the kotatsu, providing a surface for writing, reading and using a laptop computer. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Japanese desks.
