The classic Japanese storage cabinet, called tansu. Its origins lie in the Edo period (1603-1868). Initially, the tansu were used by the samurai upper class as portable boxes for storing valuable items such as kimonos or swords. With the rise of prosperity and new production techniques, the tansu spread throughout the country by the 18th century and became standard furniture in Japanese households. A wide variety of designs and uses emerged. Tansu are made from high-quality wood. They are refined and strengthened by lacquering and iron fittings. Even in modern Japan, the tansu have lost none of their fascination. They are still in demand as functional and aesthetically pleasing furniture. They lend a touch of retro charm, durability and distinctiveness to the living space and are a testament to style and elegance.
