Antique Meiji/Taisho era custom-made geisha dressing table by a master craftsman.
Product Details
A dressing table for geisha, specially ordered and crafted by a Meiji-Taisho era furniture craftsman. This antique was found stored deep in the warehouse of a closed geisha house. The materials used are high-grade zelkova and Chinese wood.
If you were to order something like this today, it would cost around 200,000 yen.
Unfortunately, the mirror has deteriorated and is very difficult to see through, but it can still be used as is to evoke memories of the past. A white paper was placed behind the mirror during photography. The last few photos show hands for scale.
The item will be disassembled into smaller parts and carefully packed for shipping. The buyer will need to reassemble it upon arrival (assembly is simple).
While there is about 100 years of age-related wear, it is in very good and beautiful condition.
Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to such details.
