■ Description
This is a highly atmospheric, authentic antique wooden writing desk (Fuzukue / Low Table) from the pre-war 1930s (Showa 10s) in Japan, making it approximately 80 to 90 years old.
It features two drawers equipped with classic iron \"Warabite\" (bracken-hand) handles. The bottom of the legs has been carefully hand-beveled by craftsmen to prevent scratching tatami mats or floors.
★ Historical Value & Sumigaki Romance
As a wonderful testament to its history, the year \"Showa 10s\" (1930s) and the original owner\'s name/shop\'s roof name are clearly written in traditional Japanese ink (Sumigaki) on the wooden part of the drawer. You can truly feel the rich romance and unique history of authentic Japanese period furniture.
■ Maintenance Done
The entire desk has been wiped down and carefully polished using a specialized Japanese wood furniture wax. It is clean and ready to be used immediately in your room, studio, or as a store display piece to create a wonderful rustic atmosphere.

■ Condition: Antique / Vintage Wear (Please Read Carefully)
This is a very old antique piece of furniture. There are clear signs of age including scratches, scuffs, dirt, minor peeling of wood, stains, and minor stiffness in the drawers due to decades of use.
*About the Drawers:*
The bottom plates of the drawers have natural gaps between the wood planks due to the traditional construction methods and the drying of solid wood over 80+ years. Please note that the wood is NOT broken or holed; this is a common structural characteristic found in authentic antique Japanese furniture of this era.
