Kamo Kiri Dansu

A chest that outlasts the house around it

Paulownia wood's air-trapping insulating properties protect precious kimonos even from total house fires — a proven fact. Traditionally crafted as a bridal chest with a lifetime guarantee, the Kamo Kiri Dansu can be washed and restored to like-new condition even after a century of use.

Kamo Kiri Dansu

Paulownia Chest of Drawers

Paulownia chests became essential bridal furniture not merely for their elegant appearance but for their outstanding functional properties.

The layered air structure of paulownia wood resists heat transfer, protecting fine kimonos even when the surrounding house burns to the ground — a fact confirmed by real fire tests.

Traditionally made with a lifetime guarantee, the chests can be washed, repaired, and made to look brand new even after 100 years.
