{"product_id":"vintage-japanese-katana-kake-three-sword-wooden-stand","title":"Vintage Japanese Katana Kake Three-Sword Wooden Stand, Natural Grain Finish, Openwork Stretcher, 47.5 cm","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"jp-product\" data-world=\"Bushido\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"jp-lede\"\u003eWood alone carries the beauty of this three-sword katana kake, its warm reddish-brown grain left unlacquered and unadorned. Tiered rests on shaped uprights give each blade its own place, so a small collection reads with order and calm, never overpowering the swords themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Japanese katana kake displays up to three swords in a balanced horizontal arrangement. Finished in warm natural wood tones rather than lacquer or elaborate ornament, it has a quieter architectural character: the visible grain, gently shaped uprights and sculptural three-level silhouette complement rather than compete with the swords it supports. At approximately 47.5 cm high, 42 cm wide and 19.5 cm deep, it has substantial presence while remaining practical for a study, collection room, tokonoma-inspired display or Japanese interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin Japanese sword culture the stand serves more than a practical function. A katana kake creates a dedicated place in which the sword is presented with order and visual discipline; rather than leaning against a wall or lying on furniture, the sword is framed as an object worthy of intentional display. The three-tier configuration suits collectors arranging several pieces together, whether katana, wakizashi, tanto, iaito or other compatible Japanese-style swords.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach upright incorporates three individual sword rests, and the open construction keeps the display visually light while the lines of each sword and saya remain easily visible. A horizontal stretcher joins the two uprights and carries an elongated openwork panel, a restrained decorative element, while broad transverse feet provide stability and keep the flowing profile of traditional sword furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike lacquered katana kake with maki-e or raden ornament, this example relies on the wood itself. The warm reddish-brown tone reveals pronounced linear grain across the uprights and structural elements, and the understated finish suits traditional and contemporary interiors alike: samurai collections, martial arts rooms, Japanese studies, minimalist and wabi-sabi spaces, tokonoma-inspired arrangements and museum-style displays. It offers an attractive alternative for collectors who prefer natural timber to glossy black lacquer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage (undated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural warm reddish-brown wood finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Height 47.5 cm · Width 42 cm · Depth 19.5 cm (approximate; allow small variations from manual measurement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wooden stand only; swords, sword fittings and other display accessories are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three-tier, three-sword display; capacity up to three compatible swords\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional Japanese sword display furniture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttractive pre-owned condition with minor surface marks, handling wear and natural variations consistent with age and previous use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubtle variations in tone and grain, small abrasions and signs of previous display contribute to its individual character.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe photographs form an important part of the condition record.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUndated vintage work; the timber species has not been identified, so the stand is offered simply as wood.
