This is an extremely rare Japanese vintage bonsai table (Kadai) from the 1970s, crafted from solid kokutan wood (Japanese ebony), one of Japan’s most prized and dense hardwoods.
This stunning stand measures about 60cm (~23.6 inches) in length placing it in the giant-size class for Japanese display tables. Kokutan wood is known for its deep dark grain, strength, and luxurious appearance, making pieces of this scale exceptionally difficult to find today.
Finished in a warm red-brown tone, this kadai is ideal for displaying bonsai, ceramics, sculptures, or any fine antique. A true statement piece of Japanese craftsmanship.
🪷 This table comes directly from a Japan Government Antique Auction, guaranteeing authenticity, rarity, and collectible value.
