A beautiful tall wooden kimono’ishô’dansu 着物衣装箪笥 (cabinet of drawers for kimono) in three sections,. Fully restored, cleaned and waxed in Japan. It is made of indigenous kiri (paulownia) wood varnished in a sought after warm brown hue, a colour that we like to call ‘golden oak’.

The upper part configured with a pair of sliding doors with oval thumb grips, opening to three small drawers and a large storage area. The middle and bottom section with three full-width drawers. The lowest section attached to a plinth. The smooth-running drawers are fitted with slender patinated bronze ‘warabite’-shaped bail handles, paired with small circular lock-plates. The sides with retractable “pole carrying”-handles for easy transport and locking the upper parts into place. The cabinet is very spacious and ideal for easy storage due to the many different type of compartments. Period: Japan – Taishô period (1912-1926). Dimensions: Height 168.6 cm (T 38.9 cm, M 60.2 cm, B 69.5 cm), Width 93.7 cm, Depth 42 cm. The kimono cabinet is in a very good completely restored condition. No keys included. Please look at the photos for a condition reference. When shipped we will add a certificate of authenticity.
