Japanese Tansu Wooden Cabinet

Handsome tansu-inspired storage cabinet featuring rich, dark-stained wood with dramatic grain, heavy engraved brass corner plates and strap hinges, and an ornate central brass escutcheon with keyholes and substantial ring pulls. The top section includes two drawers with matching brass pulls, while the double doors open to interior shelving for neatly storing jewelry, keepsakes, documents, collectibles, or small household items. Finished sides include brass carry handles, giving it an authentic campaign/tansu look that works well in Asian décor, eclectic interiors, or as a standout accent cabinet on a console or sideboard.
