The tansu offers a total of five practical drawers with metal pulls.

The surface shows a rich history—scratches and wear that tell its story with character. The back features an old, evocative repair, as visible in the photos.

Versatile in use: ideal for textiles, tableware, or stationery; also works well as a low side table or display for art, ceramics, or a lamp.

A warm, authentic accent for both modern and Japanese interiors. See less
