About the Item
This is a very good example of a Meiji Period Sendai Tansu in Keyaki wood. This one-part tansu dates to circa 1880 and is in very good overall condition as it retains all of its original iron work, the front iron locking bar and hardware, plus its original keys. The keyaki wood is in overall very good condition and showing normal wear to the the original lacquer. We have not noted any restorations and have simply cleaned and applied two coats of hard paste wax to bring out the beauty of the wood. Japanese furnishings integrate beautifully with a modern-designed room, the simplicity of style allows these refined pieces to form a counterpoint to mid-century pieces and draw attention to the more minimal items.
