Japanese furniture boasts a rich heritage that dates back to the seventh century. The masterful craftsmanship and aesthetic sensitivity that have evolved over the centuries make these pieces truly remarkable. What sets Japanese furniture apart is its virtue in restraint - compelling yet sedate, with an understated simplicity that comes from a thousand years of knowledge and careful craftsmanship.

While the beauty and value of Japanese furniture have long been acknowledged in the West, the history of their making, their milieu, and craftsmanship remain largely unexplored. Enter Kazuko Koizumi, a pioneer in the field, who brings thoroughness and warmth to the subject in this volume first published in 1986. Through a wealth of illustrated material, the pieces are placed in context, with a historical account and centuries-old drawings tracing the evolution of furniture design in Japan's floor-based culture.

With 114 color plates and over 650 figures, "Traditional Japanese Furniture" documents and discusses the roots of more than eighty unique furniture types, including the beloved tansu chest that has found its way into homes and museums worldwide. This definitive volume has found its place among collectors and enthusiasts, standing as a testament to the beauty and craftsmanship of traditional Japanese furniture.
