About the Item
This antique low table was crafted in the Taisho Era (1912–1926).
Made of keyaki (Japanese zelkova) with naturally beautiful grain, the surface shows a softly worn, time-earned patina that conveys wabi-sabi character.
The profile is defined by distinctive leg work and a modest stretcher base, giving the piece a grounded yet light look. Originally designed for floor-seated living in Japan, it sits lower than Western tables—please check the height in the dimensions to ensure it suits your setting.
Practical to use and style: works as a tea or low coffee table, a display platform for ceramics or objets, or as a centerpiece on a rug or in a tatami room. The tabletop is flat and firm with gently rounded edges, providing a stable surface for trays, books, and everyday use.
This piece blends historical character with everyday usability—an ideal addition for those who value quiet beauty and cultural depth in their interiors.
Cleaned and disinfected with a non-toxic solution.
The structure is sound.
As an antique piece, minor scratches and marks may be present, each adding to its unique charm and the story it tells over time. It has been carefully inspected and remains in excellent antique condition, with natural signs of age that enhance its character.

Japanese Antique Low Table (Zataku), Meiji Era (1868–1912), Wabi Sabi
Located in Hitachiomiya-shi, 08
This antique low table was crafted in the Meiji Era (1868–1912) from Japanese sugi (cedar) wood, finished with Urushi (traditional Japanese lacquer).
This elegant low table embodies the essence of Japanese living, designed for use while seated on tatami mats or the floor—a practice rooted in centuries of tradition. Crafted from sugi, a softwood prized for its warm grain and natural resilience, the table is finished in deep black Urushi that has weathered beautifully over more than a century. The surface tells a story of use and time: gentle wear, subtle scratches, and a mellow patina that speaks to the quiet beauty of wabi-sabi. The design is refreshingly simple—a generous rectangular top supported by a minimal frame with clean lines and understated joinery. At just 9.4 inches tall, it sits low to the ground, inviting a slower, more grounded way of living. Perfect as a coffee table, meditation...
