The ‘Choba Tansu’ or ‘Dansu (帳場箪笥)’ serves as a chest of drawers strategically placed near the cashier’s register in a merchant’s house, storing essential items crucial for business operations, including money, valuables, and account books.

Designed with security in mind, many of these chests feature hidden compartments or intricate mechanisms to safeguard their contents, ensuring they remain concealed and protected, especially in the event of theft.

This Antique Japanese Choba Tansu exudes a dignified and well-arranged appearance, thanks to its beautiful wood colour that lends an air of sophistication to any space. The jet black decorative metal fittings contrast elegantly against the wood, enhancing its overall visual appeal and giving it an unique Japanese atmosphere.

The structure of the Choba Tansu, with its numerous drawers, is providing ample storage space for organising various items. The shelves inside the sliding doors further enhances its storage capacity, making it highly useful for organising documents and items of different sizes.
