Oriental Brown Black Hardware Drawers Accent Storage Cabinet GB288S
This striking Japanese style Tansu (specifically a Kannon-biraki style chest) is a masterclass in the balance between rugged utility and refined artistry. Crafted from warm, honey-toned wood—likely Zelkova (Keyaki) given the bold, swirling grain patterns—the cabinet is defined by its elaborate black iron hardware. Heavy, hand-forged hinges and decorative plates (menpo) punctuate the frame, featuring ornate cutouts and floral motifs that contrast sharply against the natural wood finish. The chest is organized into a top row of four small drawers, a set of central double doors that open to a spacious compartment, and a large bottom drawer secured by a massive, central lock plate. Resting on a recessed, black-lacquered base with curved bracket feet, the piece exudes a grounded, architectural presence, serving as both a functional storage solution and a timeless piece of sculptural furniture.
