A characterful Japanese apothecary sideboard in excellent antique condition. Each drawer is fitted with a metal pull and inscribed with hand-painted Chinese characters, likely denoting herbal contents or medicinal categories, suggesting use in a traditional pharmacy. The wood has developed a rich patina, enhanced by the contrast of the blackened iron fittings and the expressive grain. The overall form is compact yet visually striking, with a quiet symmetry and cultural resonance that make it ideal for both display and practical use. This piece offers a compelling blend of historical charm and functional design, perfect for collectors, stylists, or interiors seeking a touch of East Asian heritage.
