Japanese Yakisugi Wooden Sewing Box – 3 Drawers & Pincushion
A charming Japanese sewing box made in the traditional Yakisugi (焼杉) style, featuring beautifully darkened cedar wood, black metal fittings, and three handy drawers lined in bright red fabric.
Compact yet practical, this lovely little sewing chest is designed to keep needles, thread, buttons, thimbles, and other sewing essentials neatly organised.
The most distinctive feature is its removable wooden pincushion stand, which fits into a holder on the side of the chest. The cheerful red pincushion complements the matching red drawer linings, while the decorative black metal handles and corner fittings give the box the appearance of a miniature Japanese tansu chest.
Perfect for anyone who enjoys sewing, quilting, embroidery, or repairing and caring for traditional Japanese kimono. It also makes an attractive storage chest for jewellery, small accessories, or keepsakes.
About Yakisugi
Yakisugi (焼杉), meaning “burnt cedar,” is a traditional Japanese wood-finishing technique in which the surface of cedar is treated with heat to darken the wood and accentuate its natural grain.
The resulting rich colour and distinctive texture give even simple household objects a warm, rustic character.
This delightful sewing box brings a touch of traditional Japanese craftsmanship to an everyday household essential.

Condition: Pre-owned, excellent condition with only minor signs of use. Please examine the photographs.
