The sliding doors are fitted with recessed rectangular metal pulls, while the drawers have warabite-shaped metal handles on floral backplates.
Made with Japanese zelkova 欅 (keyaki) fronts and burl wood panels, set within a Japanese cedar 杉 (sugi) frame. The translucent lacquer highlights the swirling grain and rounded figuring of the panels.
