CHADANSU TEA CHESTS

These chests were used in Japan to store and display tea ceremony items such as bowls, cups and water vessels.  They have a combination of open shelves for display and drawers and sliding doors for storage.  The front panels often have nicely grained hardwoods or silk fabric accents.
