This traditional Japanese stacking chest would have been used to store futons and bedding during the day. The large gliding doors and spacious inner compartments with central shelves kept futons and blankets near at hand when it was time for bed.
A century later it is perfect for holding all sorts of food, utensils, small appliances and other kitchen related items.
Like all tansu, the focus is on the warmth and beauty of the wood, in this case wonderfully strong yet light kiri wood. The hand forged iron hardware, traditional hirute shaped handles, floral zagane detail on the backplates, and a sliding lock pin on the doors complete the traditional clean-lined look.

How we craft each pantry cabinet
Like each and every piece in our collection, our pantry cabinets are constructed entirely from solid reclaimed Elm and Gingko wood.
The beams are obtained from ancient farmhouses in rural Korea. Each piece is salvaged from structures doomed to demolition in the rapidly urbanizing world within the booming economies there. This ensures that no trees are felled, and that the wood is well seasoned. Aged wood is both beautiful and strong, ask any wood worker. It's patina is unique and soulful, and it can take on changes in temperature, humidity, and pressure without cracking or warping.
All our pantry furniture is then hand crafted by skilled artisans. They combine each module using the finest Japanese joinery techniques, making each cabinet strong and stable. The hardware is forged by hand by metal workers in the area, and the stain is rubbed in by the same person that constructed each piece.
