Traditional Japanese Chests Kazuko Koizumi

The text of "Traditional Japanese Chests" covers a wide variety of subject matter, such as the birth and evolution of chests, local culture and regional style, sea chests and distribution in pre-modern times, materials and finishing. Illustrations accompany the comprehensive text, making the book easy to understand even for those who know little about the subject. The large number of metal motifs presented at the end of the book is a good reference for furniture makers and interior designers. The colour pages present chests that are representative of each style, making the book especially useful as a reliable reference for the serious collector who collects or appreciates Japanese chests.
