Nippon Club WEB Gallery Special Exhibition "Tansu" (Chest of drawers)

The exhibition "Tansu" will be held to introduce one of Japan's most iconic pieces of furniture, the Japanese chest of drawers.

From June 24 to August 4, the Nippon Club Web Gallery will present "Tansu," an exhibition featuring Japanese chests of drawers, one of Japan's most iconic pieces of furniture. Japanese tansu is rich in local color and human touch. They are powerful pieces of furniture full of life created by the Japanese themselves. Originating in the Edo period, many elaborate versions of Wadansu were made during the Meiji and Taisho periods, and today they remain a legacy of great historical and cultural value. This exhibition introduces a variety of chests developed in various regions between the Edo and Taisho periods, as well as chests remade in modern styles from antique chests.
