In Japan during the 1800's they did not have built-in storage in the home but rather movable chest, and they took advantage of every possible space available in the home.

This piece was commissioned and is used as a room divider between the great room and dining room.  Both sides are 'fronts' or show faces as the door and drawers open in both directions.

Highly figured Oregon Black walnut makes up the carcass and the drawer sides are eastern hard maple.  The door fronts are re-sawn and book matched.  The drawer fronts are also re-sawn and book matched vertially.
