Item Description This is a small wooden tansu-style chest of drawers featuring seven compartments: six upper drawers arranged in two columns of three, and one larger drawer spanning the width of the base. The chest is fitted with black lacquered metal corner brackets and matching bail-style drawer handles, giving it a traditional Japanese cabinetry look with a modern, understated finish. The wood grain is prominently visible across the drawer fronts and case, showing a warm honey tone typical of Japanese ash or zelkova-style furniture construction. The bottom drawer bears a carved seal or mark on its face. The reverse side of the piece shows a darker aged patina with small round protective pads, suggesting genuine period use. This compact chest is well suited for storing small items such as accessories, stationery, sewing tools, or medicine, and works equally well as a decorative tabletop or shelf piece in a Japanese-modern or retro-styled interior.

The item will be carefully packaged and shipped by Japan Post or DHL, depending on the situation. Due to the changes to the EU tax-free (VAT) system, Japan Post has become unable to ship certain goods valued at €150 or less to an increasing number of European countries. Depending on the destination and circumstances, the shipping method may therefore be changed from Japan Post to DHL. Delivery normally takes approximately 3 weeks, or up to 3 months if the item is shipped by sea.
