和箪笥は、地方色が豊かで人間味に富んでいます。日本人自身が生活の中から作り出した生活感溢れる力強い家具です。江戸時代に生まれた和箪笥は、明治から大正にかけて趣向を凝らしたものが数多く作られ、現在は歴史的、文化的に価値のある遺産として残っています。本展では江戸時代から大正時代にかけて各地方で発達した箪笥の数々と、骨董箪笥を現代式にリメイクした箪笥をご紹介します。

The Nippon Club WEB Gallery will hold the exhibition “TANSU” from June 24 to August 4 as the 11th special exhibition, introducing a Japanese chest of drawers representing Japan’s furniture.
Japanese Chest of drawers has a rich regional color and a rich sense of humanity, and it is a powerful piece of furniture full of a sense of life created by Japanese people from their daily lives. Born in the Edo period, many elaborate Japanese chests of drawers were made from the Meiji era to the Taisho period and now remain as a heritage of historical and cultural value. In this exhibition, we will introduce about 40 chests of drawers that developed in each region from the Edo period to the Taisho period and a chest of drawers remade from an antique chest drawer in a modern style.
