This item is from the Meiji period (1860s-1920s).
The cedar wood frame is covered with plaster.
Due to the passage of time, the plaster has peeled off in places, giving it a beautiful abstract appearance.
The door itself is relatively light in weight,
We recommend hanging it on the wall as a piece of art.
This item evokes the spirit of wabi-sabi, the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence.
It is a modest and humble beauty, the beauty of the unconventional, the opposite of vulgarity.
This is a unique and very rare item.

Since ancient times, people have created and passed down necessary tools from familiar materials to survive in the severe struggle against nature, and have nurtured a lifestyle culture.
By using these objects over a long period of time, they accumulate a flavor and reflect a way of life.
The more severe the natural environment and the weaker we are, the stronger their power becomes.
In today’s world, where cheap and disposable products are encouraged, the act of repeatedly re-creating the things around us by modifying them opens up a new world.
With this philosophy in mind, we collect beautiful, powerful, and unique carefully selected antiquities from Japan.
