Japanese Wooden Chest of Drawers – Kamakura Carving, Red Lacquer with Wave and Rabbit Patterns This is a beautifully crafted miniature chest of drawers, likely made in the traditional Japanese Kamakura-bori (鎌倉彫) style. The piece features an intricate hand-carved surface with repeating seigaiha (青海波) wave patterns, symbolizing peace, good fortune, and resilience. The handles are made of black metal in a traditional Japanese design, enhancing the overall aesthetic with a classic touch. One of the most notable features is the top panel, which depicts carved rabbits in motion — a motif that is both playful and symbolic, often associated with agility, fortune, and the moon in Japanese culture. The reddish-brown lacquer finish and deep carvings give the piece texture and depth, making it an eye-catching decorative object as well as a functional storage chest. While compact, this chest contains nine drawers, making it ideal for storing small items such as jewelry, stationery, or personal treasures. Although the piece lacks original packaging or maker’s marks, its craftsmanship and stylistic elements suggest it was created with traditional methods. Its excellent condition, with no notable signs of use, makes it a highly decorative and collectible piece. Size: Width: 21 cm Depth: 18 cm Height: 26 cm Weight:2000g Artist Profile: Unknown. Possibly crafted in the Kamakura-bori tradition — a centuries-old Japanese technique originating in the Kamakura region, known for its deeply carved wooden surfaces and lacquered finishes.
