Tea cabinet - Chadansu - Japan 1950

Tea cabinet (chadansu) in burl veneer. Pine uprights. Left side shelf in S shape (poetic allusion to steam coming out of a tea kettle). Two sliding glass doors, one note a game of combination of shelves, drawers, compartments with curved sliding doors. And wood veneers the joints of the uprights are rounded in dovetail. The cabinet is entirely pegged. Handles evoking knotted cords. Circa 1950 - style inspired by European art deco. We speak of "taisho roman" style, equivalent to "roaring twenties". Condition: wear to the metal handles - shocks, traces on the uprights. An impact on the crosspiece under the glazing (see photo with arrows). A shock on the top. This piece of furniture is fully functional and usable, with a little wear and tear over time. It will need to be dusted - it comes apart into two blocks (see photo with arrows) - weight approximately 35 kg.
