This beautifully antiqued wooden tansu chest was used to hold any number of secret items.
The rich reddish wood of this tansu will surely compliment any interior, its soft grain peeking through its shiny veneer. The elegant family crest pattern of the metal locks adds a beautiful and almost geometric quality to this tansu while the metal braces make this chest look strong and secture. Two handles appear on either side, making it quite easy to move.
